Remarks
If the applications are running, they will be shut down. If the application is in-process with IIS, all resources associated with the application (such as out-of-process packages) will be released if the resource is not referenced by another in-process application. Server component DLLs are not released from in-process applications, even if they aren't currently referenced by other applications.
Note
Deletions cannot be undone.
