Unable to install Cumulative Update on the Exchange server 2013 server. Error: Couldn't remove product with code c3f10d8c-bd70-4516-b2b4-bf6901980741

I recently came up with a case where the customer was not able to install CU18 on a Exchange 2013 server.
We were getting the following error while installing the CU

Error:

We could see the following error in the Exchange setup logs:
============================================

The CU was looking for Exchange 2007 Anti-Spam agents file.
ASDat.MSI
ASEntIRS.MSI

In order to fix the issue, we used the Msizap.exe file from the Windows SDK kit.

We downloaded the Windows SDK kit from following location
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6510

We then pointed the command prompt to the location of Msizap.exe and executed the following command to all the components of Exchange 2007 Anti-Spam from the box.

Msizap.exe T {C3F10D8C-BD70-4516-B2B4-BF6901980741}
Msizap.exe T {14F288C7-C695-40D5-971D-8890605C6040}
Msizap.exe T {93FCFF43-49E2-4AE5-9AD4-0256878AB886}

We once again started the CU update and it was successfully installed.

Hope this helps !!!
