I believe the one your after is located in .local/share/keyrings

although you may have to remove it using
sudo apt remove gnome-keyring

viewtopic.php?f=93&t=60778

and I have no idea the consequences of doing that ... seems like its an integral part of keeping passwords and you MAY want to look more into it before removing it ;-/

Open Passwords and Keys, I think you could probably delete it from there. But I wouldn't do that myself...

I'll leave it alone. I guess it's there for a reason.
