Deleting a document version
For some documents, a history of the saved versions is useful. For others, it may not be. You can delete versions of a document that are in a document's history.

- Select a work item.
- Select the Documents tab.
- Right-click the document which contains the version you want to delete and click Properties.
- In the Document Properties dialog box, review the list of historical documents at the bottom of the page, select the version of the document that you want to delete, and click Delete.
- Click OK to delete the historical version of the document from the Documents tab. Deleting a document version is not reversible.
Viewing a document's history
Every time a document is checked-out, modified, and then checked-in, a version of that document is retained along with information about when the document was checked-in, who it was checked-in by, and comments (if any) left by the team member.
