Discover users without Visual Studio SP1 installed
Far too often people install Visual Studio SP1 before Team Explorer 2008 and therefore TE remains unpatched in the RTM state.
Luckily the ambitious TFS Admin can use the TFS Server Manager from the Power Tools package (TfsServerManager.exe in the Power Tools folder) to find those users without SP1:
Check for VS 2008 SP1 from the server
Open "Completed Requests" in TFS server manager.
Choose "devenv.exe, 9.0.21022.8" (= RTM), devenv.exe, 9.0.30729.1 stands for SP1.
Click "Run Query" and look at the User and Client IP columns to identity your colleagues:
Done!
