Thanks for this!! It’s the only thing that worked for me after attempting several other solutions. Apparently this bug still exists in 2024.7.2 and was driving me crazy! In my case, it was a light group that I couldn’t seem to remove but it’s all good now.
Hi @francisp ,
I trying to remove an anniversary item, that i added with the anniversary service. But I have absolutely no luck:
I always did a reboot after each of the things I tried:
Remove as above suggested → Still there
deinstalled integration → reboot → remove as above → still there
any idea, where this can be deleted?
thank you
Juergen

Note to my future self: Use a different browser. Seemed to be a caching problem. With another browser everything was as expected. Sorry.
all the best

Just to let you know, since 2024.8
Services is renamed to Actions
So now is
“Developer tools” → “Actions” Tab → Service: “Recorder: Purge entities”
Thanks to @freshcoast

I have a hass OS container in unraid. can only (to my knowledge) edit the files while HA is running (using the terminal and VI). However, after editing and removing the entity entries, restarting HA… all that is deleted is back again!
How can this be solved?
My post pointed to a post of someone else. However, post 6 seems to be the solution to the initial post. That might be the way to go.
I removed all entries in the known-devices, but that did not help
Problem solved. You need to go to the Ha CLI (VM console of the virtual Machine in Unraid). Then issue the command
core stop
With that, HA shuts down.
Then
login
to go to the operating system
The files can be found in
/mnt/data/supervisor/homeassistant/.storage
Edit the files as per above, exit the operating system and re start HA with
core start
and the orphaned entities are gone.
