In TFS what is the difference between a workspace and local path mapping?

I'm learning Team Foundation Server 2015.

I am attempting to set up a repository I have created with code from a local folder.

I created a workspace to connect my repository name with a path on my local machine. While this populated my solution explorer I see in source control explorer my local path says - Not mapped.

if I set a mapping it says this already exists in my workspace.

this also prevents me from adding items to the folder or getting the latest version, both require a mapping.

So do I just need to remove my workspace mapping and set a mapping to a local path within Source Control Explorer instead?

Assuming you didn't select the workspace you created. You need to select the workspace you have created for your project:
