I would like to remove node-red-contrib-alexa-home-skill but it shows as "in use", which I assume is telling me I have a node somewhere, but I cannot find any relevant nodes. When I remove that pallette my flows stop working.

When I remove all my flows (one by one) it remains "in use"

Any quick way to find this invisible node?

Thanks

Hi @Spackstor

Open up the Configuration Nodes sidebar panel and see if you can spot them in there.
