XnViewMP keeps shows old images I deleted as thumbnails for my folders. How do I get rid of them, and replace them with my current images?

No, I used File Explorer to delete them.

so catalog was not updated. You can select the files and 'update catalog from files'

it's not possible if XnView is not started, you need to use XnView or update the catalog

"View" menu...

But I think you were talking about 1 or 4 thumbnails used to illustrate the folders ;
so you should select the folder on the right side of the browser and use "Rebuild Thumbnails" , also located in View menu...
