I'm slowly gettnig used to Team Foundation Server but I find much of the functionality is difficult to 'discover'. You have to really dig.
I just spent about half an hour trying to work out how I change the working folder for a particular project. I didn't find much so I thought I'd post here with the keywords I used in the hope I might save somebody else the same troubles.
It's actually pretty easy once you know where to look. In the TFS Source Control Explorer (Double click on the source control folder for your project in the Team Explorer window) you should see a dropdown called Workspaces.
If you open the dropdown list you'll see an entry at the bottom called "Workspaces..." which opens the Edit Workspaces dialog. The first window shows you a list of computers on which you have workspaces. Simply choose the one you want to change and click Edit...
Now you can change the local folder for each project you have worked with on that machine. Doddle.
