Help! I am brand new to Node Red. I've been running Webcore on my Hubitat for years and love it, but wanted to try this out. It was working fine until I imported the example from node-red-contrib-alexa-home-skill, and now I get this warning. "Flows stopped due to missing node types - wemo-dev". I only had two flows. I deleted one, and erased everything in the other, but this keeps popping up now. What do I do?

BTW, this is on a fresh install of Buster/Node Red on a Raspberry Pi 3.

[EDIT] I may have figured it out. I loaded the wemo package from the palette.

Then, when I created a new flow, it came up with the account name that came with the example, so I deleted that account.

Ok, not the end of the world.

Though it is weird if it used to work how the node _disappeared_.

Top right menu button - the _burger_ menu in/on the `node-red` screen. (NOT the browser one!)

Click on it.  
Go down to `manage palette` Then select `install` from the 3 options.

Enter the name of the node (or that which you know). In this case.. `wemo-deb`.  
You should be shown a list of _best fit by name_ of the nodes.

Select the one you want/need.  
Say `install` and all should be fine.

Apparently the demo I imported used the wemo plugin. I was finally able to find the name of the account and delete which solved the problem. Unfortunately, another flow I imported now wants ui\_group and ui\_tab, so I've got another account to delete. ☹

[EDIT] I found the parts I need to delete. 😃
