Cannot uninstall Exchange 2013 from Server with REFS file system

EX2013 SP1 installed fine on the 2012 R2 server with REFS, but now I need to remove it and reinstall. When I go to uninstall it, I get an error that "the specified installation directory must be located on a NTFS file system". I have tried via control panel and command line.

I could avoid the uninstall if I could replace the Enterprise Edition license key with a standard key. the "Change License Key" option only allows you to go from standard to enterprise. 

Any advice on either issues? (uninstall from REFS or change enterprise key to standard key)

According to the below TechNet article REFS is supported for an install, but maybe not an uninstall
