The following error appears in the Output window when I load my project:

We were unable to automatically populate your Visual Studio Team Services account.

The following error was encountered:  VS30063:  You are not authorized to access:  https://app.vssps.visualstudio.com.

How to:

Hi,

Welcome to MSDN forum.

Please try clicking “Manage Connections” in Team Explorer, re-connect to your VSTS team project. If you still get this error, please close all Visual Studio instances and delete the files under “%LOCALAPPDATA%.IdentityService”.

Open VS 2017, enter your username and password to connect to VSTS. Then open your project. 

Best regards,

Joyce

I'm having this same issue under VS 2015.

I click on Manage Connections and I get the following message:

"Git is not supported on this server"

No idea how to proceed from here?

Cheers, Rob.

Greetings Robin,

 I have the same issue - did you find a solution?

 So far, I have performed steps in Joyce's 8/14/2018 post.

I'm getting the same error on VS 2015.  

I reconnected to the team project (we use TFS).  I deleted files under C:\Users....\Appdata\Local\IdentityService.  I verified my accounts under Help/Register Product.   Still getting the error.

Same and now it's March of 2020 - Does MS even give a care?
