Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂

If you are looking at the library tab in the desktop application, you can't delete tracks from there. The library pulls in tracks from all of your playlists and local files, so you need to find the track in whichever playlist it is in to remove it.

Do they appear in the local files list? You may have duplicate mp3s or whatever on your desktop device?

Now I'm a bit confused since you said these were tracks not in a playlist earlier but spotify doesn't show tracks which aren't in a plalist as far as I know. Can you post a screenshot to show this please?

These look like starred tracks but I have no idea how the same tracks got starred twice. I think you're going to have to try a clean reinstall to see if it gets rid of the duplicates. Please follow the instructions here. Before you start, please make a note of the cache location shown in spotify's preferences/option and make sure the folder has been deleted before you reinstall.
