Hi - this is now the third time this specific question has been asked (and answered) in the last couple of days. Is that a coincidence or are you asking again and again hoping for a different answer?

Those messages are coming from a node. The node id begins with `1a47...` - in the top right corner of the debug messages.

1. Have you searched for the node id to find it (starts `1a47` in the top right corner of the debug messages)?
2. Have you opened the Configuration Nodes sidebar and checked you have no nodes hiding in there?
3. Have you restarted Node-RED since deleting everything just to make sure it wasn't a badly implemented node that hasn't tidied up after you deleted it.
