  WSUS is a server role, so you won't find it in the program & features.  You need to use the server manager to remove the role:  Server Manager, click Manage, and then click  Remove Roles and Features.

  And to re-install do I have to use an install CD or just go through Server Manager..manage and add role again ?

  Hi artman51164,

  As it is a Role, you simply need to go through the Server Manager to install a new role.

  You can also install it with the executable downloaded from this link

  Do not forget to read Lawrence's tutorial on how to uninstall WSUS, this might help in case of problem.

  TiGrOu.
