Error creating a new Team n Visual Studio Online project
I created a new Visual Studio Online account to migrate all our projects from TFS 2010 (on = premises) to VSO. I used the OpsHub migration utility to help with this process.
During my initial testing, I created a team project on VSO and migrated it from TFS 2010 and everything went smoothly. Then I deleted the team project on VSO as it was for testing only.
After that, I tried to create again the same team project in VSO using the same name and I get the following error:
The team project name (project name here) was previously used and there are still TFVC workspaces referencing this name. Until you use this name, the owner of each workspace must execute a Get to update their workspaces. The first 1 workspaces found are name: (username here).
I am not quite sure what I should do to fix this problem. Can you help me?

I had the same problem this morning. It looks like you were unable to remove old links from TFS. The way to do this is to use the Command Prompt on your system.
You need to use TF command in Visual Studio Command Prompt to delete old workspace. Syntax:
tf workspace / delete (project name here); (username here)
since it was TFS Online it was a Microsoft account so in my case the command was
tf workspace / delete "MIWORKSPACE; juss.palo@sulava.com "
