I have designed all the templates I want. I would like to get rid of the

Sorry. You are stuck with these.

You can delete them if you can locate them - may be in subfolder under
Office, or in your user subfolders. Best way is to open Windows Explorer
and do a search on "*.dot" files - look in system & hidden as well as normal
files (i.e. extended search). Once found, select those you want to delete.
You may want to clean up recently-used record - but as you use existing
templates any mention of previous templates (now non-existant) will
disappear from the file
open/new window in word.

You will not find the latter two as .dot files; they are hardcoded as part
of the executable. Blank Document represents Normal.dot, but if you delete
that, Word will just make a new one. Believe me, you are stuck with these
three templates!

OK - but you can tidy up other templates that you may no longer need.

Understood, but that is not what the OP asked about.
