Get latest source code in TFS without Visual Studio

Usage: Visual Studio 2013; TFS Express 2012;

For auditing and BCP requirements, another IT staff member must obtain a copy of the latest source code in TFS for backup.

This authorized member of the IT staff should not be a developer and should not modify or compile the code, but his only privilege would be to download the latest source code from TFS without any version of Visual Studio.

How can this be achieved?

You can choose a Team Foundation client to support your tasks:

In your case, you can use "Team Web Access for TFS". Team Web Access gives you read-only access to Team Version Version Control. You can view the files and even download their latest versions . You can also compare the two files, view the version history, and also view the annotation information of the file, indicating who made what changes to the file. You also have the option to find and view information about Shelveset. You cannot, however, check information to / from Team Version Version Control .
