I have an inadvertent folder in the left pane of the classic start menu- it's empty. How can I delete it? Thank you.

Have you tried right-click -> Delete?

Thank you but no Delete option when I rite click. It just says 'the file or folder that this shortcut refers to can't be found.'

Try right click -> Unpin from Start Menu (Classic Shell).

That's because Windows tries to resolve the shortcut. Open these folders in Explorer:
C:\Users\<Your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
AND
C:\Users\<Your user name>\AppData\Roaming\ClassicShell\Pinned

Select the broken shortcut with left click and press Delete key on the keyboard.

(Appdata folder might be hidden on your PC. To see it, turn on hidden files and system files).
