Something clearly remembers the old collection.
One option, if you still have access to it, is to re-enable the old collection, disconnect it from it, and reconfirm to the new collection before decommissioning it. Thus, Visual Studio has every chance to clear or rewrite any links to the old collection before deleting it.
If it is too late, then the places that I would look (in order of priority) are as follows:
- Make sure you delete the old collection / server from the "connect to TFS server" dialogs
- Make sure that all workspaces for the old collection are deleted and that the folders containing your solutions / projects are displayed in the new collection file structure. (Old comparisons may prompt Sun to add bindings for the workspace, which, in his opinion, refers to these folders)
- Remove all collection references from any solution and project file and delete all source binding files (vssscc, etc.).
- Search all files (.) In the source tree
- Search your registry (be extremely careful if you find anything and want to delete it).
