I want to delete all my emails except for what I have starred! Is that possible without clicking on every single email??

I am able to select all starred emails so if I wanted to delete all my starred emails that would be easy but I want to delete all unstarred emails. I have about 150,000 unstarred emails and I would wear out my fingers trying to select each one by hand. Thanks for any ideas.

Right-click any column button, such as Subject, Date etc. and enable the Starred column. Then click the Starred column button to sort the list into starred and unstarred blocks. Select the first unstarred message, hold Shift and select the last unstarred message, press Delete.
