Manual uninstall of Exchange 2013? Just deleted directory and ADSIEdit?

Decommissiong a number of mailbox servers. All worked ok apart from one. Now uninstall is failing.

To force an uninstall, can I just remove the directory and then remove the server in ADSIEdit?

At the moment its telling me "An incomplete installation was detected. Run setup to complete exchange installation".

First time round it started the uninstall and gave a different error that I forget. Is there any way to force it to uninstall now?
