Cannot remove clone

We once made a clone on a developers SQL instance, and the developer removed the instance, without removing the clone first.
I now cannot remove the clone, because the system reports 'Agent offline'.
How do I solve this problem?

    Assuming you mean you can't remove the clone using the UI, I've previously resolved problems like this by deleting the clone's record from the appropriate table in SQLClone_Config database (noting that there is 'soft delete' trigger on the tables).

    Hi Gert,
    This isn't a situation we've seen before, but Chris's advice is the best course for now. If you need help deleting the file physically, it'd be easiest to raise a support ticket with support@red-gate.com - it should be straightforward enough, but there might be some back-and-forth.
    We'll look into adding a way of deleting clones in this state without having to database-dive.

    I disabled the soft-delete trigger, removed the record physically from table clones, but the clone does not disappear from the UI, and I'm still not able to remove clone and image. I follow the suggestion of Owen to raise a support ticket.
