Remove pending changes but DON"T 'UNDO' my changes from TFS

I edit about 50 files in 20 different folders. When I check out for edit, I mistakenly used 'ctrl+a' and selected all folders along with all files in it. That's about 1000 files that I didn't touch at all being included in Pending Changes. How do I remove them from pending changes without "UNDO" my fix for those 50 files?

You can move the files via FileExplorer, Undo through TFS, and then add the files back where they were.

[I work with TFS 2010] When doing checkin TFS checks if file was changed. So it is safe to do checkin all files. Not changed files will not be included in changeset.

You could shelve the files you're interested in, undo everything, check out the files you're interested in, unshelve the pending changes, then check in your changes.

Or you could just check everything in and let TFS ignore the unchanged files.
