Any setting of the Hide indexed tracks can only be done from the Edit menu. Choosing the multiples tab allows setting a number at a time. Using this feature does not stop them showing in the Hoster search dialog, it only stops them being shown in the songbooks that you print.

As lonman has stated you can delete all or a selection of files using the Edit multiples dialog.
If you choose to delete your KMA files this way it will completly remove them from your hard drive, which from your first post seems that's what you want. With your kmh files however it will only remove the small kmh file but leave your original mp3+g or zip file in place ready to be imported again.
So if you wanted to remove all sign of these (Perhaps for An Audit) you would still have to use Windows explorer to delete the original file.

Also after deleting them in the edit dialog the folders list in the build database dialog would still contain these folders so if any of the files remained in those folders and you pressed the re scan folders button at any time while a type was selected they would be re added to the database.

Also in my post #4, if you did go down the route of uninstalling to completely start again I think you would have to delete your Hoster folder from the C./MTU folder after uninstalling or at least rename it to use as a backup before re-installing as I'm not sure if uninstalling removes this folder as that contains a lot of your present data.

I would guess that with 6000 cb and 6000 SC you would be getting a great deal of repeats
