Add the project name, this should do the trick:

tfssecurity /g- “[Team Project Name]\Contributors” n:Datum1\jpeoples /server:http://ADatumCorporation:8080

You can't delete the user in all projects with a single query.

Example: if you get the list of groups for user like, Member of 4 group(s):

  • [G] Domain\TFS_Developers
  • [A] [Team Project1]\Contributors
  • [A] [Team Project2]\Contributors
  • [A] [Team Project3]\Contributors

You need to specify the detail project such as Team Project3 with below command:

 [tfssecurity /g- /collection:http://[servername]:8080/tfs/[CollectionName] [Team Project3]\Contributors n:[user ID]]

More detail info you can refer this blog.
