- Clean up Exchange-related configurations: Remove any Exchange-specific IIS configurations, such as the WebDAVModule, using the provided PowerShell command.
- Verify Active Directory cleanup: Carefully remove any remaining Exchange-related objects from Active Directory using a tool like ADSI Edit.
- Repair Windows components: Reinstall the necessary Windows features, such as Web-Server, Web-Asp-Net45, and Web-Windows-Auth, to ensure the system is in a healthy state.
- Attempt a clean Exchange uninstallation: Before reinstalling Exchange, try to perform a clean uninstallation using the Exchange Uninstall Wizard, ensuring that you select the full cleanup option.
- Reboot the server: After completing the cleanup and uninstallation steps, reboot the server to ensure a fresh start.
