OK, had tried that before and got a compatibility error message, so found that there was a TE-2013, installed that, so on a chance that there was some special magic that was needed from the 2012 version. I uninstalled the TE-2013, ran thru the install of TE2012, got the message again(something about Net 4.5) and followed it to the KB patch, installed the patch, rebooted, installed the MSI and still no joy. still no entry in the InstalledSCCProviders for TFS, still only the PB Native entry and the 2 that Visual Source Safe entered way back when. still opened PB to double check for magic and nope, only those show in the drop down.
