How to resolve TF10149?

Question

I installed TFS 2015 express locally on my PC.

I am trying to add an existing solution to TFS (VS2013). I have never administered a TFS sever before.

Currently I am getting this error:

TF10149: You cannot create files in the root folder. Create a team project and then add the files under the team project folder

What I don't understand is how to resolve this.

In TFS I created my own "Team Project Collection" So when I go into TFS Admin Console I see:
- DefaultCollection
- MyProject

I then launch VS2013 and my mapping are:
Source Control Folder = $/
Local Folder = C:\MyFolder\MySolution

When I click on the ellipsis for the Source Control Folder it shows host\MyProject.

Do I need to create another folder under this TFS project?

The error message is pretty clear: You have to create a Team Project to store your project artifacts (work items, builds, source code, etc).

See this answer for an explanation of Team Project Collections vs Team Projects.
