Delete unused files in the library

Hi

I wonder why Adobe Animate always fail deleting unused files in the library ? It doesn't select all the unused files the first time, I have to run the command twice to get rid of all my unused files.

Thanks

This is a long-standing problem. Sometimes you can delete everything, and sometimes you need to do it twice.

when you click select unused files, not all the unused files are selected?

Yes, exactly - I have to delete the few ones that were selected at first, then click on the command again in order to get the remaining files selected

how many unused items are in the library when you see this problem?

 

eg, i just 4 symbols to a fla's library, and the select option selected all 4.
