Default Excel - How do I delete filtered out rows?

I want to quickly delete unwanted rows from a file. I can use a custom
filter to "hide" the unwanted rows, but I'd like to delete those rows.

Any suggestions.

Instead of hiding the unwanted rows, filter to show ONLY those rows. Then
select and delete the visible rows.

You need to choose a filter option which displays only the unwanted
rows (i.e. the opposite of what you have now). Then highlight the rows
which are visible and Edit | Delete Row.
