Bulk preset delete

Is there a way to bulk delete presets from Lr?
The delete group option is grayed out for me so that is out. I have hundreds that I want to get rid of, dont really want to go one-by-one and do it.

I just figured out how to do it. Went to my iOS device and was able to delete preset group that way. Not ideal for those that do not have it on a iPad or iPhone. 
Something you might want to consider adding to the desk version of Lr.

Hi @Thomas2449675803yu! Thank you for reaching out! Please check out the correct answer in this community thread: Solved: How to delete multiple presets at one time? - Adobe Product Community - 12193859

 

The "Delete Group" option is likely greyed out because those presets were imported as Profiles or are being treated as "installed" system assets/ shared resources rather than simple user presets.


Thanks a bunch!

That page you suggested does not work, no option with Adobe Lr, not using LrC, to show in finder. 
Guess it's a one-by-one. Joy. add to my list of issues with Lr
