Using TFS 2015 Power Tools for Workspace Templates

Has anyone managed to use the Create Workspace from Template with a local path value replacement working?
I have set the local folder to C:\ROOT\ and then entered a folder name in the Local Path field when creating a workspace but it always creates the workspace with C:\root\ and doesn't replace using the path. The Source Control Folder path does accept ROOT and the Branch Path replaces this ok. Thanks in advance for your help.

Solution

  • When you create template from original template, set the local folder to Z:\\ROOT\xx, check the screenshot below:

    When create workspace from new created template, set local path to e:\ws\ (example), check the screenshot below:

    Check the new created workspace setting:
