Get rid of SourceSafe source control

visual-sourcesafevisual-studio-2008

One of my projects was under SourceSafe and I am using VS2008.
Recently I switched to SVN. I removed all SS related files and committed the source files into SVN. Anyway, when I open my solution I'm still getting this inoffensive but annoying message (see picture below):

The source control provider associated with this solution could not be found. The projects will be treated as not under source control.

Do you want to permanently remove the source control bindings from the projects?

I answered multiple time Yes and saved all the files, the I closed the solution and reopen it. I always get this message.
Where can I manually remove any binding left there?

You will need to touch the solution file and each project file in the solution.

In the .sln file you will see the following section which needs to be removed.

GlobalSection(SourceCodeControl) = preSolution
  ...
EndGlobalSection

In the .csproj file you will see the following lines which need to be removed.

<SccProjectName>SAK</SccProjectName>
<SccLocalPath>SAK</SccLocalPath>
<SccAuxPath>SAK</SccAuxPath>
<SccProvider>SAK</SccProvider>
