    <p>I currently have a TFS 2010 Server running on SERVER-1. On my client (MY-CLIENT) I have VS2010 running and have a workspace associating SERVER-1 with \MY-CLIENT\Development. All is good.</p> <p>I was playing around with setting up a different instance of TFS on SERVER-2. On my client, I deleted the original SERVER-1 workspace and created a new workspace associating SERVER-2 with \MY-CLIENT\Development. All is good.</p> <p>Having finished my experiments with TFS on SERVER-2, I re-imaged the machine (deleting the TFS Server on SERVER-2).</p> <p>I then went back to my client machine, reconnected to TFS on SERVER-1 and attempted to remap source control to my Development folder. However, am now receiving the error "<strong>The path \MY-CLIENT\Development is already mapped in workspace MY-CLIENT;SERVER-2\Steve</strong>." Now I have a problem.</p> <p>So, I gather from this that I should have first deleted the SERVER-2 workspace BEFORE re-imaging the machine. Unfortunately, I did not do that.</p> <p>Poking around in some forums, I realize that I can use a command line tool to perhaps delete it:</p> <pre><code>tf workspace /delete MY-CLIENT;SERVER-2\Steve </code></pre> <p>However, when I run this, I get a message indicating that "<strong>Team Foundation services are not available from server <a href="http://SERVER-2:8080/tfs/development" rel="noreferrer">http://SERVER-2:8080/tfs/development</a>.</strong>"</p> <p>So the question, then, is how do I force deletion of the SERVER-2 workspace on my client so that I can re-create my old SERVER-1 workspace?</p>
