Ghost macro button in quick bar

There is a macro button in my quick bar that is not listed in my Macros list. I already checked the Abilities for all my characters and it's not coming from there either.  When I Shift+Click to try to edit it, nothing pops up.  Did I break something somehow? Am I stuck with this ghost macro?

Is it listed in the Sidebar's>Collections tab by chance?  If so, just uncheck the "In bar".  GM's can create collection/global macros that player's cannot edit, but I think if the GM enables the macro to be seen by player's, a player still has to check the "in bar" option to view it on the quickbar.
I tried posting a reply but it doesn't seem to have worked.  Here's try 2 with further details. I'm the GM, in GM view.  There are two macros on my quick bar: DryadClub and NPC_Init . There are three macros in my Sidebar > Collections tab: 1d4 (In Bar unchecked),  Club (unchecked), and NPC_Init (checked). I know that DryadClub and Club are different (see commands below). The DryadClub button is running the command:  %{Dryad|repeating_npcaction_-MLVCAaLuJc8X6rB3L7r_npc_action} The Club macro is running the command: /emas @{selected|token_name} swings a club /roll 1d20+@{selected|Strength_mod} vs AC /roll 1d4

So you didn't make the " DryadClub " macro and you cannot edit it to delete it?  Can you drag it off the quickbar?

Most likely, it is an ability on a character sheet. The easiest way to find out is to open the macro by shift-clicking the button. This will open whatever sheet it is on, or the edit window if it is a Collections macro. My bet is that it is an Ability, though.

You may have dragged abilities from NPC sheets down to the Macro Bar by accident. Try removing them by hovering over the right-hand end of the button until it becomes the 4 arrows and clicking and dragging it up to the middle of your screen and releasing it.

Is the Dryad character still in the campaign? Renamed, maybe?
Apologies for not replying earlier; the weekend got the better of me.  The button wasn't on any character sheets that I could find but Rabulias's tip about finding the point where the mouse icon changes to the 4 arrows did allow me to remove the button.  Thanks for your help, everybody!
