How to change user credentials for TFS in Visual Studio

Because of some work we were doing I lost my TFS connection. When I logged in again I used the wrong account. I did not know how to connect to a different account. Disconnect and connect took me back to same account.

Solved with thanks to:

This had images as well. Text copied here in case link breaks

  • Goto Start > Control Panel on your machine.
  • Click on User Accounts or User Account and Family Safety, depending on your operating system and configuration.
  • Now you should see UI that looks like below. Click on Credentials Manager

Click on the connection you want to modify. Remove from vault. Or Edit worked for me.
