i was running DAG But removed it and want to remove Cluster Service
That's the reason I asked about the application. Follow this

You need to use the last option, where cluster node is removed.
i tried this solution before but didn't work because my cluster service is damaged.
So that, i search for how to force remove cluster service from windows 2008 R2 ???

I tried this solution Also before :

i removed this two key from regedit:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\ClusDisk

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\ClusSvc

After that tried to remove the cluster feature " without restart the server " 

but give me error can't remove the cluster because the server is active node in clustering !
I tried it again now and worked good

Thanks amitkulshrestha.
i wanna ask about thing ..

when we install Exchange 2010 DAG . We should install cluster feature before install DAG
or the DAG Already install this feature with his installation ?
No need to install cluster service it will done automatically. Make sure you have win 2008 enterprise edition
