Can't remove failed virtual switch from Hyper-V's Virtual Switch Manager

Hello,

We have a virtual switch setup in the Virtual Switch Manager and the adapter has been deleted by mistake using the "Change Adapter Settings..." of the Network And Sharing Center. Now, obiviously the switch is in a failed state and we just want to remove it from the list.

The Hyper-V console and the PowerShell command ("remove-vmswitch -Name "VSITCH01" - force") both returnsthe error below when removing the switch, because obivously, it can't find the adapter. How do I force remove the switch from the list?

remove-vmswitch : Failed while removing virtual Ethernet switch.
Failed to connect Ethernet switch port (switch name = '49ACD343-5D84-40F8-9B87-70F34F820AF1', port name =
