Default Clearing out unused tracks

I've googled this and found lots of posts but nothing that really addresses my issue. So I have about 10 tracks in use for a song I've been working on but in the tracks list on the left of the mix window there are probably 40-50 tracks there. I've tried downloading, adding them and then deleting them but they never go away. How can I clean up this list to only include what's current?

You can make tracks inactive or plain and simply delete them. Though if we are talking about dozens of tracks you should probably save copy in so you have the tracks available for future reference.

Making inactive in Ultimate has no side effects, but in Standard you can only have 128 audio tracks (active or inactive) so maybe something needs to be done.

How do I delete them? I click on Delete and they are still there? This is in the First version by the way.
