How to delete (lots of) secondary variants?

I inadvertently had "All images Selected" when I instructed C1Pro to make a New Variant and consequently, the program generated a new variant for all 586 images.

How do I delete the secondary variants of all the images without having to go through them all one by one??

The problem this has caused is when I come to develop all of the files, I am getting a develop of the secondary variant too, which I do not want and it is doubling the develop time (obviously).

Thanks in advance

  If you used "New Variant" then you can use the advanced sort to find "All" "Adjusted" "is false" to display all the variants that have not been adjusted. Then select all and delete. Make sure you don't select any unadjusted files that you haven't worked on yet.
  
  This won't work if you used "Clone Variant." If you cloned the variants, then you can go to the Image menu and use Collapse All to only display the primary variant. Then when you process, only the primaries will be used. The secondary variants will still be there, but out of the way.
  
  Try this with a backup copy of your files if you're unsure about it's results.
