Folks this is the absolute last resort. DO NOT TRY THIS ON YOUR FIRST ATTEMPT!!!!

Disclaimer: This posting is provided “AS-IS” with no warranties, and confers no rights. Use this information at your own risk, I or Microsoft are not responsible for any damage which may occur due to wrong usage of this command.

Navigate to the Manage Service Application section of central administration. ex: http://servername:2010/_admin/ServiceApplications.aspx

When you have over any of the service applications links with your mouse, you will note that at the bottom of your browser you will see a URL. The other option is to right click on any of the service application links then properties. Take further note that at the end of each URL there is an ID in the form of a GUID. I have noted a few below. Once you have determined there are no other options for removing the service application use the following command followed by the GUID.

Command: Stsadm -o deleteconfigurationobject -id %GUID%

Ex: Stsadm -o deleteconfigurationobject -id 19928d02-7ccb-44b5-9b3b-9ca1aa0130f0

Some example IDs

  • tsid=19928d02-7ccb-44b5-9b3b-9ca1aa0130f0
  • Id=178c598ac5kk405b9564a29b55fe2542
  • AppId=4beb5h7e-92bf-4f21-f859-d2e4b49457db
**Update**
You might unintentionally leave “orphaned” databases attached to your SharePoint farm using the above command. To fix, use PowerShell command “Get-SPDatabase” to get a listing of the database’s GUIDs. Then use the above stsadm command, to remove the orphaned database.
