Is there any way to delete a large section of measures
I accidentally messed up something, and I need to delete a bunch of measures. It seems unnecessary to go in and try to delete each measure individually, so I was wondering if there was any possible way to delete large amounts of measures, like it is to add them.

Select the full range (quickest way is probably to click the first note and then shift+click the last one). Then press ctrl+"backspace delete".
Quick and easy.

Only ctrl backspace works on my win10 AZERTY.
Not ctrl del.

US keyboards work with ctrl+delete, that's what I normally use.

Ctrl+Del works on my belgian Azerty; I had to configure it once after installing MS3 in the shortcuts though.

If you had to configure it, you can't really say that it works.
Because that would be true of any arbitrary shortcut that you would link to that command.

It does work, just not by default.
But that might still be a bug, maybe it got forgotten to get added properly to the default AZERTY shortcuts?

"it does work, just not by default"
Associate ctrl+W to that command in your shortcut preferences.
That will also "work".
I wouldn't use ctrl+W as help for other users though.

Correct, default on QWERTY keyboard.

I had to configure it because I had a changed shortcuts file and did beta-testing which resulted in the update to the final release not removing my custom settings; including somehow not honoring Ctrl+Del as default shortcut.
