The error you are getting is coming when you are removing the mailbox role.
Therefore you are sure that you selecting the correct option? Do you have other CAS role holders in the Exchange org?

Simon.

"i do have a iso of exchange 2013 cu5"

Where did you get that from, as they don't exist as far as I am aware.
Exchange 2013 ISOs are RTM and I believe SP1 only. All CU updates are the extracted file download method.

You need to put the installation files in the same place that they were originally.

Simon.
the installation file that for CU 5 i placed on the desktop, and i used the cu 5 for first exchange installation, when i want to uninstall the CAS, buy clicking "change" it said please run the setup installation media location, then i tried to run the setup file from cu5 source from desktop, it doesnt allow me to uncheck the CAS from the box, also i tried to mount the exchange iso, but it said version issue, doesnt allow me to uninstall, any idea ?
It needs to be in the exact same location as it was when originally installed.
You need to double click on the CU5 download file and extract the file to a path.

You can get the location out of the registry, but the exact key I don't know for CU5.
It will be under this path somewhere:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
