Attempt to clean up copies keeps corrupting my file [CS5.5]

I've been saving alot of copies of my project out of fear of progress lost, but because of this it's creating alot of copies of the files in the project.

 

Every time I try to delete them though it corrupts my file. It's starting to cause an issue, the copies go up to 240 by now 😞

ah i completely forgot that this was happening:

 

it could easily just be an issue with my puter and not the actual program, though. this only happens when i start deleting the copies though (even the 0 use ones)


There may be some issues with the document.

Try to save it as a XFL, then back as FLA (with a new name). Then try the select unused and delete them.

I have experienced some file corruption with CS5.5. Opening the same file in CS6 may allow you to work around the issue.
