I opened several old archive folders to search through them, now I can't close them, I get an error stating the operationg failed, an object can not be found. Is there any way I can remove them? They are still seen when I archive and cause errors there also.
 
If you cannot close those folders and you know they still exist in the area as your main pst then likely your current pst is corrupted. This seems to happen with quite a bit of regularity in all the Oulook versions.

First make sure those other psts are in your profile. Then go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033 and run scanpst.exe against your main pst. First save the one you have now so that if this screws it up you have a backup. But it shouldn't. Anyway repair the pst and see if that helps.
