Multiple ESPHome integrations, one disabled, unable to remove

ESPHome

Hi,

I have a problem with the ESPHome Addon in Home Assistant (running on a Pi). I had some problems with creating some new ESP32 boards and adopting them (previously used for something else) so I thought I would remove the ESPHome Addon.

This has left me with one enabled, one disabled, and no addon showing, and no ESPHome link in the sidebar.

I can interact with the devices under the normal ESPHome block by clicking on them, but I can’t do anything with the ones under the disabled ESPHome block. Nothing happens when I click on them.

I would really quite like to be able to remove the devices under the disabled integration because I’d like to use these ESP32 modules for something else and I suspect that this is the problem.

Any advice? I’m not really sure how I got into this mess!

Thanks

I’m a new user, so I’ve had to put my second screenshot of the addons page in this comment.

Sometimes (e.g. if the MAC address &/or name of the unused device is no longer on the net, and possibly other reasons) these zombie instances will go away, or become deletable, after a restart of HA.
