[SOLVED] ESPHome question

Hi everyone,

I just added a 3rd party water meter sensor and found it in “ESPHome”.
After I renamed it to my preference I have two (my new one is online the old one is discovered and waits for “adopt”).
How can I get rid of it?

If I delete the yaml in /config/esphome manually). it’s coming back waiting for being adopted.

Obviously removing the yaml manually AND doing a restart of HA, did the trick.
