Posted on by Dhanush R 27

Hi 
Recently one of team mate left the team and forgot to log off her account in VsCode, apparently I don't have access to her account credentials.
Currently I am facing an issue while mapping my account to the Vs code. I will attach the error message below.

The working folder K:\AosService\PackagesLocalDirectory is already in use by the workspace dev230c509166-1_1;Person Name on computer dev230c509166-1.

Could someone please help me with this issue?. I want to remove her credentials and map it my credentials .

 

Thank you.

    If you put the title of your thread to a seach engine, you would have found a thread with a completely identical name at Stack Overflow and you could've read the answer there. Here is a difect link for you: how to remove TFS workspace mapping for another user.

    For example, you can use tf workspace /delete "WORKSPACENAME;PREVIOUSUSERACCOUNT".

    use visual studio command prompt and execute:

    TF workspace /delete MACHINE_NAME;USER_ACCOUNT /collection:"https://TFS_PROJECT_URL.visualstudio.com"

    this way you'll delete the user mapping.

    You can also use this command:

    TF workspaces /computer:* /owner:* /collection:"https://TFS_PROJECT_URL.visualstudio.com"

    to query all the users workspaces, so you can ensure there are no other workspaces configured for that user
