if this is the last public folder that you have in the org, try running this before doing uninstallremove-publicfolderdatabase <name> -removelastallowed.

Hi, If we have other Exchange Server, then we need to remove data from a public folder database, delete any unnecessary public folders, and then move the remaining folder replicas in that database to a public folder database on another server. If it is the last exchange Server in the network, then please try to remove all the public folder instance and then remove public folder database.
