Reset TFS work item templates to latest version?

Is there a way to reset or start over with the latest version TFS work item template? I do not care about any existing work item history.

Scenario: I have a TFS project that has code, but never used work items. The existing template is too old to use the automatic Configure Features wizard tool. It is ok to mess up any work item history.

Is this possible? Thank you!

Take a look at https://nkdagility.com/tfs-process-template-migration-script-updated/ It covers off what you need to do, and includes some PowerShell to help you.

Have a look at TFS-PowerTools

The built in Work Item Templates should override your existing ones. That might even work before updating, but i'd not recommend that try.

We had this trouble once too. A coworker fixed this after doing some kind of Troubleshooting guide. (Let me check tomorrow if i can find that one again)

Let me know if that helped!
