I have a new installation of Visual Studio 2015 with Update 3 on Windows 7. It seems that I'm missing all of the libraries related to TFS. I have nothing under this folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\TeamFoundation." I have tried repairing the install and that didn't help. What else should install?

Thanks!

With Visual Studio 2015 and later Microsoft changed the location at which these assemblies reside. They reside in a strangely named folder under the

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions" directory

for me it was under the "4t4m3e1u.n25" folder, do check under the Extensions folder and you should get all the required dlls there.

Please check the if the Team Explorer is installed and working for you (If you open Visual Studio and the Team Explorer pane doesn't appear, click the View/Team Explorer menu option.).

Whatever, For the 2015 release, we have removed the client OM DLLs from the GAC.

These have been moved into a Nuget package, see NET client libraries for Visual Studio Online (and TFS) for details.

You can download the Microsoft.TeamFoundationServer.ExtendedClient package from nuget.org and import into your Visual Studio projects.
