Can't change local TFS 2010 paths

Running VS 2010, I want to now build on TFS 2010. In Team Explorer, I change my connection from our old TFS 2008 build server to our new TFS 2010 server. Now I want to map my source control from the old local directory (C:\TFS) to new directory (C:\TFS2010). Using File -> Source Control -> Workspace, I can change the top level mapping of our projects to the new location, clicking the "recursive" check box.

However, I notice that while the top level mapping changes, the local paths for the second tier folders don't change.

I tried removing all mapping, and I tried refreshing. Tried restarting VS2010. Tried renaming the old directory – that wasn’t allowed.

I haven't tried getting latest from the top level, as that would take way too long and I probably don't have that much disk space.

Oddly, If I go to File -> Source Control -> Cloak while selecting a second tier project folder, it seems to think the mapping has already been updated for that tier.

Any ideas how I can re-map all my projects (or even just some of them), to a different local path?

remove the mapping from the root folder, once this is done you will be able to change the path.

Since the Root folder is mapped it is locking the entire structure to the same path.
