From VS:

1. Open Team Explorer
2. Click Source Control Explorer
3. In the nav bar of the tool window there is a drop down labeled "Workspaces".
4. Extend it and click on the "Workspaces..." option (yeah, a bit un-intuitive)
5. The "Manage Workspaces" window comes up. Click edit and you can add / remove / edit your workspace

From VS on a different machine

You don't need VS to be on the same machine as the enlistment as you can edit remote enlistments! In the dialog that comes up when you press the "Workspaces..." item there is a check box stating "Show Remote Workspaces" - just tick that and you'll get a list of all your enlistments:

From the command line

Call "tf workspace" from a developer command prompt. It will bring up the "Manage Workspaces" directly!

I ran into the same problem, and was able to fix it by manually deleting all the files in the TFS cache, located here:

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Team Foundation\3.0\Cache

or 4.0, 5.0, etc.

Thanks for your help!

Find problem workspace SELECT * FROM tbl_Workspace WHERE WorkspaceName like '%xxxxx%'

Find desired workspace SELECT * FROM tbl_Workspace WHERE WorkspaceName like '%zzzzz%'

Select Edit Top 200 tbl_WorkingFolder then Find the problem mapping SELECT * FROM tbl_WorkingFolder WHERE WorkspaceId = Problem WorkspaceId from above

Change the WorkspaceId to the desired WorkspaceId

Finally goto Project Explorer and select Remove Mapping on the project

Modify VB6 MSSCCPRJ.SCC to match the desired WorkSpace

The error is genuine. You might have created workspace with same name on different machine. Now you may have changed machine having different machine name.

So here is work-around that will definitely work.Following is work-around.

1. Go to "Team-Explorer"
2. Go to "Source-Control"
3. Go to Workspace drop-down
4. Click on "Workspaces..."
5. A pop-up window will appear
6. Click on "Show remote workspaces"
7. Now delete the workspace which is conflicting and you can proceed your work.

File -> Source Control -> Advanced -> Workspaces -> Choose the workspace in Manage Workspaces and click "Edit" Then you can change the local folder.
