mqtt auto discovery creates non existing devices

Hello,
before switching to zwavejsui I added one of my old z-wave thermostats to zwavejsui to test, if it works. Then I deletet the thermostat in zwavejsui. After migrating everything, I have the problem, that for this not existing thermostat, mqtt auto-devices are created. In zwave-js-ui I don't find anything. When deleting the devices and rebooting, they are back again. It seems, that there is something in the mqtt-messaging queue. I can't install mqtt-explorer on my debian bullsyeye 32 bit os. What can I do?

I stopped mosquitto and deleted the mosquitto.db. The devices were gone, but my shelly devices created with shellyteacher4demo didn't work again. So I recopied the old mosquitto.db, the shelly worked agin, but the devices reappear.

1. forbid creating new devices in setting
2. disable mqtt-autodiscover

Or is there a way to find the mqtt-messages?

Thanks!

I installed mqtt-explorer on my laptop and see the non existing device and the messages. I'll try to delete the messages there. Can I delete the whole zwave device Thermo_Test or only the messages

Solved, deleted all messages of thermo_test in mqtt-explorer.
