Removing unused files/folders in a collection?

I have a HUGE collection of DOS Freeware titles that I dumped to a folder and bulk added to Launchbox but there were a TON of different versions and languages for the same game (1.01, 1.02, 1.03, FR, DE, ES)

After painstakingly sifting through and removing the unwanted items from Launchbox, the folders and files of the unused games still remain.

Is there a way to remove the unused files and folders in some way? Like possibly moving the files and folders that Launchbox IS using (even temporarily as to not mess up PATH variables)?

Also, a ton of artwork was downloaded for the unused games before they were deleted, does Launchbox delete the artwork along with the title when it's removed from my gameslist, and if not, is there a way to clean that up?

Thanks in advance! I'm trying to save as much space as possible, and these DOS games take up a ridiculous amount of "size on disk" space as they're mostly smaller than the drives cluster size 8(
