Jpeg File Duplication (Illustrator)

Saving a jpeg file in illustrator but it duplicates the jpeg files mulitple times. 

 

How can I stop this?  I only want the program to save one file.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program but  I am still having the same issue. 

 

Can someone guide me accordingly

No please. It was not doing this before to my knowledge.  I just tried it with another ai file.  Exported as a jpeg to my desktop and it duplicated the saved file with -02. number code in the tag line.

Where do you see these duplicates? In Illustrator, outside of Illustrator?

If I understand correctly, you place a jpeg file in Illustrator, save the illustrator file and see multiple versions of the jpeg file on your desktop? Named like?
