Catagory List; can't delete some entries that have been saved

Question

Doing my End of year Housekeeping.  Reviewing the CATAGORY LIST...there are entries recorded in the LIST that are Transfers.  Some of these entries I have not used since 2015....and no longer have a need to use them.  When you Right click on the entry, or, click on the same arrow to the far right....DELETE is not displayed.  Your choices are to MERGE WITH ANOTHER CATAGORY...when I try to use this I get, you Can't Merge...etc.  basically, I have No need for these Transfers Entries saved in the Catagory List...the accts are closed in Quicken (and of course the banks).

Is there away to Delete these catagory entries?

Short answer No.

Unless you delete the associated accounts (which you likely don't want to do), that will also delete the transfer category.
