How to delete unneeded "Content Location Presets" in the Media Browser? { SOLVED }

When I was trying to clean up the "Content Locations" in the Media Browser, some locations couldn't be deleted. The X delete button is greyed out.
I believe the ones I can't delete were the preset locations populated in the directory by default. Any of the locations that I have added to the list can be deleted as expected.
I was just hoping to prune this directory and get rid of options I don't need (ex My Music, My Videos, Track Icons, etcc).
A) is this normal?
B) if so, is there a ini file hack or reg hack to prune that list?

The delete option is only available for user created Content Locations. I would guess deleting the registry entries for Cakewalk created locations would work. For X3 Producer the entries are located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cakewalk Music Software\SONAR Producer\X3\ContentLocations. Before changing the registry, I would recommend exporting the key, just in case.
