Default Delete Calendars and Contact folders

Somehow I have multiple calendar and contact folders, and when I right click
on them the "delete" is grayed out. How do I delete these?

I have had problems with my email receiving and sending, after I worked
through those problems, I lost my current calendar and contacts. When I
added back my old email information I got them back; however, I have all
these other folders now. Additionally, when I took the .pst and loaded it on
another computer/outlook, I only got my what I believe to be my default
calendar with none of my information in it. Deleting the extra ones will
help, but I assume, I can't delete the default and how do I know which one
that is? And how do I get my information into the default?

Sounds like you have an irretrievably corrupted profile. Locate all .pst
files on your computer (enable searching hidden files/folders). Create a
new mail profile under Control Panel-Mail Icon-Profiles-New. Do not copy
your old profile. Configure the new profile to use your current .pst file.
