VS2012 return to a normal TFS checkin window?

tfs, visual-studio-2012

Solution

Another method is to use the Productivity Power Tools. This extension adds Windows shell integration so you can perform most of your TFS commands directly from within Windows without even having Visual Studio open. The Power Tools uses the old style windows when used from within Windows shell.

Problem

VS2012 seems to remove the popup window for TFS check-ins that was in VS2010. It now seems to take over the team explorer tab in my sidebar, and buries the important things - like which files I've changed. Is there any way to return to a normal popup window for check-ins in VS2012?
