How to remove(?) pending edits for departed users?

Question

My TFS terminology usage is probably all wrong because I'm new to it.

I have taken over a project. Two other users worked on it before me. Now they have left the company.

Lots of files in our TFS repositories say they are being edited by the departed users. I am assured by one of these users that this is wrong and I can safely make TFS not think the files are being edited.

However, I don't know how to do this. I am the only developer here and I want to make TFS think that no files are being edited at all.

There are thousands of files so I need a way to do this to all of them at once.

I have to write more or else this answer will be converted to a comment and SO won't let me mark it as the answer.

I hope this is long enough now.
