TFS Error: TF30063: You are not authorized to access

So I decided to give the TFS another go and went ahead and set up a free account for the cloud. It took just a few minutes and I was impressed. That was until I tried to log in from Visual Studio to commit some code. I was met with the following error message:

TF30063: You are not authorized to access … TF30063: You are not authorized to access …

TF30063: You are not authorized to access …

Turns out there might be some caching problem with IE and if you are logged in with another account you wont be able to log in. Odd, I’m not logged in anywhere, and I don’t have another account. I cleared the cache, still error. Ctrl+W,W in VS will open a web-browser in VS, navigate to your online TFS account and log in. Hopefully this will solve your problem. It solved mine :)

Hmmmm...didn't even think of that. The problem I found is that if you have an Office 365 account, it interferes with the TFS Service. I had to clear my live account cookies as well as O365 cookies and then it worked for me.

Latest Comment I believe my problem occurs when using Nuget, however, if you are reading because of the TF30063 error.
