If this is the case...
Try...
- Make sure Visual Studio is closed (and devenv.exe not in memory anymore)
- Run: devenv /setup
- Check if it's fixed already. If not, close down VS again.
- Run: devenv /resetuserdata
The Team Explorer window should now look like expected again.

Name des Updates und Nummer:
- Security Update for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 (KB948109)
version 9.00.3068.00 released on 7/8/2008
Applies to:
- SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 with Reporting Services installed
Symptoms & Result:
- After installation the SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services service might not start. Therefore the Reporting Services cannot be used anymore.
Distribution:
- The Update is distributed via Windows Update.
Workaround:
- Uninstall the update (requires a restart).
My recommendation:
(for your internal SQL server you use for TFS)
- Do not install the update and wait for the next service pack release.

Service Packs for VSTS/TFS do not only contain bug fixes, but quite a few nice new features as you can read here (more general) and here (TFS-specific).

If you have trouble installing SP1 look here and here.
Tip #1: Uninstall Visual Studio Hotfixes first
If you previously installed a Visual Studio 2008 Hotfix, you must run the Hotfix Cleanup Utility before installing Visual Studio 2008 SP1. For more information, see Visual Studio 2008 Hotfix Cleanup Utility for Installing Visual Studio 2008 SP1.
Tip #2: Have enough disk space available on your primary hard drive:
You can read here why.
Tip #3: If you have Team Explorer or TSWA on your TFS you need to install... (Thanks to Hakan Eskici)
... Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1 and TFS 2008 Service Pack 1 (in that order!).
Tip #4: Integrate installation of TFS and SP1 ("Slipstream")
The steps to produce a so-called "slipstream" installation package are documented in the TFS Installation Guide in the chapter "How to: Integrate the Installation of Team Foundation Server and Service Pack 1".
There are a few reasons why you must do that (e.g. upgrading to SQL Server 2008) you can read in Brian Harry's blog post.
Tip #5: Ignore Windows Update reboot prompt (Thanks to Brian Harry)
If you get a Windows Update prompt to reboot during SP1 installation, ignore it (don't reboot). Wait until after the SP1 installation completes and then reboot.
Tip #6: Uninstall and reinstall Team System for Database Development GDR (Thanks to Brian Harry)
If you have a prerelease of the Team System for Database Development GDR (that supports SQL 2008) installed, you will need to reinstall it after upgrading to SP1.

Question:
Can I define a file name, not only a file type (extension), if multiple checkout is allowed for the whole Team Foundation Server?
Answer:
Yes, that is possible, although the UI shows "file extensions" and displays it in a way that you might think that it's not supported.
As a result you can specify that *.cs files in general do support multiple checkout but a certain file called "specific.cs" follows exclusive-checkout logic.
Enjoy!
