"Change Source Control" not in menu - Team Foundation Server 2010

I'm seeking to repair bindings between Visual Studio and TFS (both 2010) and have done my searching. The pages I sought help from are: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/tfs/ms181375(v=vs.100).aspx Can't unbind solution from Team Foundation Server 2010

They all say the following: "On the File menu, click Source Control, and then click Change Source Control", however no such sub-menu exists in my Visual Studio (2010) installation in the "Source Control" sub-menu. I've ensured that the correct project is selected in the Source Control Explorer.

Please help me overcome this nightmare!

I had the same issue. Even with the solution open, I still couldn't see Change Source Control.

What it seems to be, a bit bizarrely, was that I had the solution selected in Solution Explorer. If I selected any other item in the Solution Explorer (e.g. any file) I could then go to File -> Source Control -> Advanced -> Change Source Control... and rebind everything from there.

Maybe it was that I had an item selected that, as far as Visual Studio was concerned, didn't have any source control bindings, so it didn't show the option to change them.

Instead of selecting the solution in the Source Control Explorer, you need to open the solution/project so it displays in the Solution Explorer. Once it is there, the menu item will display. The only way I couldn't get "Change Source Control" to display, is to not have the solution open.
