View All Pending Changes in TFS

To view all pending changes (checked out files) in TFS you need to do the following:

1. Open a Visual Studio Command Prompt (or ensure that the “Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE” folder - usually in C:\Program Files - is available in your path).
2. Change to the root directory of the project you want to search for pending changes (eg. C:\Projects\MyCustomProject)
3. Run the following command:

   tf.exe status /r /user:*
   

4. To output this to a text file (easier to read) simply add “> filename.txt” eg:

   tf.exe status /r /user:* > editedfiles.txt
