Workaround

 Please follow our official troubleshooting documentation to fix this problem:

Work items that are part of archived releases will be excluded from your timeline. There are two ways to fix this.

One is to reschedule work items from an archived release to an active one.

Alternatively, you can unarchive the release:

1. From the Projects dropdown menu, select your project, then Releases from the left side menu.
2. Using the dropdown menu next to the search bar, include Archived releases in your view. 
3. Lastly, use the menu on the right to Unarchive your release.

You may either unarchive the release or use another release that is not archived.
