Hi @ SenhorDolas,
Last month we deleted the 2 x Exchange 2013 server VMs
Most settings for computers running Exchange 2013 are stored in Active Directory . Simply deleting a VM cannot uninstall Exchange Server.
Properly and safely uninstalling a deactivated Exchange server in your environment requires either unattended installation mode or running Setup.exe from the Setup file location.
For detailed steps, please refer to this document:Decommissioning Exchange Server 2013 - Microsoft Community Hub
Because the Exchange Server has now been removed, I recommended that you recover the lost server and then perform an uninstallation。
Please refer to this document on how to restore the Exchange server:
