Before you start with this procedure you need to log in with the default Administrator account but before you can do this you need to enable that account from ADUC. All changes we make to the current Exchange Server 2007 installation are made from within Exchange Management Shell. If you have disabled the Exchange Server services you need to enable and start them otherwise the uninstallation will fail. Uninstalling Exchange Server from the SBS can take up to 10 minutes or up to two hours, be patient and let it run.
