I just did the most recent update and when my MacBook Pro restarted, every single screenshot I have ever taken appeared on my home screen. Is there a fast way to remove those screenshots all at once from the screen without slogging through and removing them one at a time? There are some screenshots I need to keep so I don't want to just delete them all.

On your Desktop, right-click and choose Use stacks from the secondary menu. Your screen shots will all be collected into a stack named Screen Shots. Click on that stack to open it, select the first screen shot, and press the space bar to display that image in a Quick Look Window. If you want to delete an image, then press cmd+backspace to move it to the Trash, and the next image will appear in Quick Look. If you want to skip over an image to save it, use the down-arrow key. Don't forget that if you accidentally delete one of these you want to keep, open the Trash folder, right-click on the redeemable image, and choose Put back.
Right-click on your Desktop and click that Use stacks menu item to disable that feature.
Empty the Trash when you are finally done.

Yes. Open a new Finder window and click on the Desktop in its sidebar. Then do a ⌘+F to start a search with this criteria: Name contains screenshot. You'll get this (I have only one screenshot on the Desktop):
Then you can do a ⌘+A (select all) and drag them to the Trash bin.
Command-click on the ones you want to delete, then click on one and drag them to the Trash.
Probably you should first find the ones you want to keep, and move those to a separate folder-- and maybe put that folder in your "Pictures" folder so you don't accidentally delete them.
Or… Select them all , command click on the ones you want to keep which will de-select them, drag the rest to the Trash.
This was the easy solution I was looking for...thank you! I had to search around for "Use Stacks." For me it was in Finder under View. Appreciate the help!
You are welcome.
