This plugin allows the website administrator to remove the following from the WordPress Administration Panel:
<ul>
<li>menu links (like “Tools”, “Appearance”, or annoying menus from third-party plugin)</li>
<li>submenu links (like “Users > Your Profile”, “Tools > Available Tools”, or annoying menus from third-party plugins)</li>
<li>and dashboard meta boxes (like “QuickPress”, “Other WordPress News”, or annoying meta boxes from third-party plugins)</li>
</ul>
It relies on hardcoded settings in wp-config.php (instead of having yet another admin settings page to deal with). Since the settings are all hardcoded, it can be easily set up by a website administrator and left in place without any users messing with it. It works on both single and multisite installations.

We analyze the post of the selected post types against the ACF groups in use. Afterwards we remove all data from deleted groups. 
There’s a dry run available (discovery) to see how many fields would get removed. On the actual cleanup you get prompted because it can’t be undone (so make a backup first).

Does what it says on the tin. I needed something to clear out ACF fields from a previous theme, and this did the job quickly and efficiently.
