Anyone?

I have set aside ambitions to use the hosted engine, I was able to 
restore a working engine on a seperate host, however now the engine has 
the former iteration of itself listed in the VMs, and I can't delete it 
as it is "not managed by the engine".

How can I delete the former hosted-engine from the list of VMs?

Thanks in advance,
