Hi all I use TextEdit a lot to generate html/xml files. I have one standard working file which is saved as something like ABC.xml. I open it in TextEdit and write what I want and general re-read and re-edit it many times and continually save it by using "Save a version". I also constantly view it in Safari to see how the coding produces a good text display.
I also regularly use Finder to search for names, places, etc. and these include words that are to be found in my standard ABC.xml file. But with this new version of TextEdit with "Save a version" the results in Finder includes every version of my ABC.xml file that I have saved - hundreds of ABC.xml files, they just keep growing. No problem I thought I can just select and delete them. No such luck. I can select but right clicking produce no menu, let alone a delete option. You cannot drag them to the Trash. They get selected but will not move. Selecting the various ABC.xml files does not show where they are stored (so I am unable to go to a particular place and delete from there). Attempting to open them just says it can not be opened as the original item cannot be found. Before this flood of versions makes Finder impossible to use - how do I delete all these versions.
