Good evening.

I have been trying to connect to TFS 2010 source through Visual Studio 2015. I am able to view TFS 2010 server and projects from VS 2015.However, IDE throws 'object reference not set to an instance of an object' exception when I try to connect to any of projects in TFS server. Much appreciate any further advise.

That is supposed to work, but just to be sure, which exact version is that TFS 2010 server on? 2010 rtm? SP1, SP1+Forwardcompat? Check: blogs.msdn.com/b/bharry/archive/2012/03/23/… - jessehouwing
Which exact version of VS are you using? 2015, 2015u1? - jessehouwing
Check whether the Activitylog contains any clues: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms241272.aspx - jessehouwing
@jessehouwing, Thanks. We have SQL Server 2008R2, Windows server 2008 R2 -standard (62 bit) and TFS 2010 version - 10.0.40219.1 (SP1 KB2182621) on the source control server; and VS 2015 ultimate. - Sreejith Nair
If you can connect TFS through Web access,it may has problem in your VS. Try to run command devenv.exe /resetsettings to restore Visual Studio default settings or reinstall TeamExploer2015 in VS. - PatrickLu-MSFT

We couldn't get this working in TFS 2010 and hence migrated to TFS 2015 solved this issue.
