TFS 2008 to TFS 2010 Migration

Here’s how we migrated our TFS 2008 to TFS 2010. This is not an in-place migration. What is generally recommended as upgrade path is to backup the TFS 2008 DBs, restore them in the new TFS data tier and then install TFS 2010. This will migrate all the projects at once.

Upon clicking any of our Team Projects in source control explorer I get "Team Foundation Error - The workspace MYWORKSPACE;DOMAIN\MYUsername already exists on computer MYPCNAME." Answer: The same local paths on your machine are mapped to 2 different...
