SoureSafe Get: not working, An Item with the name thefiles already exists
 

I tried to get files from Souresafe, it gave me this message, and did not extract any files:

An item with the name $/files already exists

Please help me out ...thank you!

You'll need to report SourceSafe problems to Microsoft. You can check the 'Log the command-line' option on the Advanced tab and rebuild the step to determine the ss.exe command-line being used.
