TL;DR; Explains how to resolve TFS connection issues over HTTPS from behind an ISA server by updating Visual Studio registry settings for proxy configuration.
This problem it seams is to do with the way Visual Studio 2010 connects to your TFS server over HTTPS. The default value for “BypassProxyOnLocal” in Visual Studio 2008 was “False”, but it has been changed to “True” for Visual Studio 2010 Beta 1. It should be noted that this is currently a Beta 1 workaround and this behaviour may be updated for Beta 2 and RTM.
You can fix this by adding the following registry keys and restarting Visual Studio 2010:
You need to add a “RequestSettings” key to both of the following location that contains a string value pair of “BypassProxyOnLocal=’False’”.
32bit OS Key Locations:
1HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftTeamFoundationServer10.0RequestSettings
2

64bit key locations:
