Remove Merge Documents and Relink Documents views from library
Im not sure how that would work but have a suggestion. Create a new Form library, since thats the reason you are seeing those views, and test deleting those two pages to see if the changes are reflected in the view menu. Then just try uploading documents to the library. Maybe you can just save the existing one as a template and create a new library from that to test.
So, deleting the repair.aspx and combine.aspx files in the Forms folder in SharePoint Designer worked... the "Merge Documents" and "Relink Documents" Public views are no longer listed in the library ribbon. Does anyone know if deleting those 2 files is going to break anything? I can't see to find anything about that on the internet.
I don't think you are breaking anything else then the files for that specific list. If you are hessitant to remove the files you could also change the views so they are always empty (use a filter that will always result in false like ID equals 0). This way you can leave the files and the list as is and just update the view using the SharePoint UI.
There is no permission to remove the option to change views... You could make it a bit less obvious by changes the list view webpart settings and remove the view select option.
