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

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

on the desktop. I usually save my files there.

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?

Export as or Export for Screens? The last one allows multiple exports.

Is it a specific file or all files?

I tried it as a png format as well and it duplicated the same way.

I meant is it a specific .ai file that behaves like that or any .ai file?

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.
