Cannot Delete Pictures

[Lisa]

I have no idea what I have done. I have a number of JPGs and I decided to
create individual folders for easier viewing. I cut and pasted the pix but I
still had the individual pix as well as the same pix in folders. I tried to
delete the ones not in the folders. I could not hold the shift key down and
delete them all at once. It would only highlight one at a time. I could
hold down the control key and highlight multiples and by doing so I have
created hundreds of pictures. I can only delete them individually. Help! My
pictures are multiplying faster then rabbits. Why is my shift key not
highlighting multiples and deleting them????????

You might want to try the following:

Move anything you don't want to delete out of this folder.
Click on one of the files you want to delete so it is
highlighted.
Now hit the CTRL key + the A key at the same time (CTRL + A).
Hopefully all the files will now be highlighted and you can click
on the Delete key.
