Team Foundation Error: The workspace[Workspace];[user name] already exist

When we upgrade or downgrade TFS, we get error like "Team Foundation Error The workspace[workspace];[username] already exist on computer [computername]. This happens when we open the visual studio.

What happens after installing TFS?????

1. When we open the Visual Studio - it automatically creats a workspace if it doesnt exist
2. Close the VS.
3. Again when we open the VS , we get this TF error.

once we get the TF error , it repeats every time we open VS.


Solution:
go to MS VS -> VS tools -> VS command Promt
and execute"tf workspaces /remove:* /server:teamserver2"

this will clear the temporary workspace that are saved before upgrading or downgrading.
