TFS Hangs while viewing source control folders

Hi,

We have been dealing with a strange performance issue with TFS.

One of our users reported that he's facing terrible performance issues while working with TFS.
Any source control operation takes a long time. Even exploring the source confrol folders causes Visual Studio to hang.
Besides that - the client PC works great with any other application and any other network resource.

We noticed that those TFS issues happen only in this specific PC, when working with Team explorer 2005 or with 2008, or while using msscci plugin for VB6.

Cleaning Visual studio cache did not solve the problem.

We solved the problem by creating a new workspace. As soon as we set the new workspace as the current workspace in source control explorer, the performance issues were gone.

Hope this tip will help you
