Rebuilding your Team Project's SSRS folder

I had a problem with Reporting Services, I basically could not create Team Projects and it got to the point where it looked like the only solution was to do a fresh TFS (2008) installation. So I uninstalled pretty much everything a started over but without removing the TFS databases (I did have to get rid of the SSRS DBs). After reinstalling, as expected, my reports were gone, and so were the project portals. What I had in front of me was up to one day of uploading and manually configuring the reports for the different Team Projects, one by one. I figured there should be a better way to do it so I started searching... and I found! I found a very nice tool that saved me a lot of time and I thought I'd share it with you:

This tool helped me copy reports, including all their configurations and settings that otherwise I would have had to do by hand. All I had to do was create a new Team Project (the one I couldn't create earlier) and use it as a source to copy all the reports to the different Team Project folders in SSRS that I had to re-create manually.

Special thanks to its author!
