How to Remove a TFS Group

I'm managing an instance of TFS 2015. I added a special TFS group to a branch to deny access to certain users. I now want to remove this group from the branch, but I don't see how it's possible. I'm currently looking in the Version Control tab under the TFS Control Panel for the project, where I added the group to the branch to begin with. Is there a place to specifically remove a TFS group from a branch? Otherwise what is a reasonable work-around?

You can use tfssecurity /g- to remove a user or a user group from an existing group. More details of tfssecurity command from MSDN. A example:

tfssecurity /g- groupIdentity memberIdentity [/collection:CollectionURL] [/server:ServerURL]

Or, refer to this issue Cannot remove user/group from area-level, iteration-level, version control, build security setting, it seems by design. Please try the method from the comment: 'If your user's permissions are all configured to "not set", then the user will be removed from the dialog the next time you launch it.'
