Remove all snapshots at once

I have about 10 snapshots. I want to remove the entire VM and its virtual HDD.
Removing each snapshot separately is very time-consuming.
What would happen if I go into \.VirtualBox\Machines\[MachineName] and just delete the Snapshots folder? Probably a bad idea if one wants to retain anything of the machine. But would it be ok if one wants to delete the entire machine and its virtual HD?

What version of VirtualBox are you using?
If it is version 4.0.* you can remove all of them at the same time by selecting remove from the main VBox GUI.
If it is older you should remove them in the media manager, one at a time (sorry) then the original VDI.
