In my machine the build notification tool was in system startup, and I am connected to two TFS Servers, currently team explorer / source control explorer / build notification tool doesn’t support remember password option. Because of this, I had to give the user credentials for TFS every time (My windows credentials are different from TFS credentials). Today I found a solution, which helps to store the TFS credentials in local machine; which helps to avoid the login dialog from Build notification tool as well as from the team explorer and source control explorer windows.

In Windows Vista:

1. Go to the User Accounts Control Panel > Manage Your Network Passwords
2. Click Add, Enter TFS server, User name and password.

In Windows XP:

1. Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > User Accounts > Advanced > Manage Passwords > Add
2. Enter TFS server name, user name and password
