Hi,
I'm unable to access the server manager in Windows server 2008 SP2. I'm trying to uninstall one of the role, but it's not showing the installed roles.
The error message, when expanding the roles.
"Server manager encountered an unexpected error while collecting data about this computer"
OS: Windows server 2008 SP2
Platform: 64-bit
