title: Visual Studio creating multiple/ additional workspaces
body: <p>I started using TFS since VS2010. By that time I already created my own TFS server (myname.visualstudio.com). My problem is that I created a new project on the my TFS website (the one with the dashboards). Then when I go to VS2017, and connect to that new project, it asks me to map and get it as expected. Instead of just clicking "Map &amp; Get" button, I instead clicked advanced so that I can configure everything.</p>
  
  <p>On the workspace configuration dialog, I noticed that <strong>VS names it as "MYPCBLABLA_1"</strong>. If I try to remove the "_1", VS says that "<em>the workspace blablabla already exists on computer blablabla</em>", and does not let me use my existing workspace name.</p>
  
  <p>Why does it do so? Can I not use only 1 workspace? From what I understand of workspaces, it is the container of my projects, so different workspace, different set of projects. But what are they really?</p>
  
  <p>Additional info:
  I don't know if this helps but on the past, I used to format my PC many times, I'm not sure if that affects the mappings or workspace names when I use VS after reformatting.</p>
