 * These 2 cron jobs likely belong to this plugin, [https://www.screencast.com/t/GSCqytbF53](https://www.screencast.com/t/GSCqytbF53)
   I’ve tried many ways to remove them but they end up added back. Where should 
   I look? Thanks.

 * [@wpshushu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpshushu/) indeed, the plugin
   has some maintenance scripts running. I didn’t know it would be a hassle sometimes.
   You can either implement the following code within functions.php (e.g., inside
   your Child theme) or within a custom plugin where you have custom hooks (I found
   it the most effective as the actual events are not created):
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp_unschedule_hook('wpacu_daily_scheduled_events');
       wp_unschedule_hook('wpacu_weekly_scheduled_events');
       ```
   
 * OR, you can use a plugin such as “WP Control” where you can edit the actual cron
   event to run at a much later date. If you delete it, it will be re-created later
   on, since you only delete the actual event, you do not cancel the hook.
 * I hope it helps! Let me know if you have further questions!
