Renamed the HA host PC - HA still discovers the old PC name
Home Assistant is running as a VM on a Windows PC. I had initially named my Window host PC "HomeAssistant-PC" and had installed HASS.Agent. I renamed the Windows PC "HASS-PC" (shorter name). I uninstalled HASS.Agent from the Windows PC and cleared all directories (I think) and reinstalled. But Home Assistant continues to show "Discovered / HomeAssistant-PC / HASS.Agent / ADD IGNORE" and after manually adding "HASS-PC" to HASS.Agent it shows the "HASS-PC" as unavailable. Also, I see this (see below) in the logs for "HomeAssistant-PC" which may be a clue (?). I've deleted all entries in MQTT related to "HomeAssistant-PC" but entries come back. So, I'm guessing there is something I have not properly cleaned from HASS-PC.

Never mind. I just restarted Home Assistant (again - not for the 1st or 2nd time) and now it sees "HASS-PC" not "HomeAssistant-PC". So, I think the problem is resolved. Sorry for the premature post.
