Best way to fix TFS workspace without synchronization after backup / restore

Question

On Wednesday, I had to restore the backup image that I made on Monday. During the snapshot, I modified about 20 files, which I later checked, and much more, on Tuesday. Now, when I get back to the snapshot on Monday morning, my workspace has all these files extracted or added, etc. Even my comments on registration and association of work items. But I already did this registration on Tuesday.

I think that I will postpone all pending changes (just in case), and then just undo all the changes and get the latest (specific version). And I have to go back to good.

Any warnings or suggestions?

Answer 1

If you are sure that you checked everything before recovery, and the TFS server has the correct versions of all the files, you can only be safer to delete the workspace and create a new one.

This will ensure that everything will be where it should be, and you will not jeopardize something accidentally rewritten or changed when you do not want it.
