TFS in Visual Studio Online

Question

I used before free TFS from Visual Studio Online. I worked fine, I added some projects to TFS and did check-in and check-out without problem. But now it just stop working. When I try to check-in new projects, I get the following error:

The following issues were encountered during check in: TF10169: Unsupported pending change attempted on team project folder $/Code. Use the Project Creation Wizard in Team Explorer to create a project or the Team Project deletion tool to delete one.

What is Project Creation Wizard? How I can run it? And what is happened with my account? I see the message:

Your account is an Early Adopter account. In 31 days your account will revert to a standard account.

Maybe that's why it's not working anymore?

Answer 1

You cannot create or delete folders at the top-level of the source tree. (Eg, $/Code).

The top level of the source tree is reserved for Team Projects, which must be created and deleting specially. If you want to delete $/Code, you will need to undo your pending change that deletes it and instead delete it using the Project Creation Wizard or the TfsDeleteProject command.
