Thanks, you guys really are not much help. I gave you all the information I had. I gave you my make Mojave 10.14.6, inkscape 1.0.1. I don’t know why a file would save as large MB when I’m just saving them as basic inkscape svg. and more to try and open those large files causing the program to repeatedly crash. I just don’t have any other information to give you. 
Ciao for now,
Josie

jlo726I don’t know what else to tell you.I'll paste the guidance from the linked post: Your question has a much better chance of getting fast, good answers if you follow these tips:Describe the steps you took. Please be specific. Describe the result you expected.Describe the result that actually happened.Describe what you have already tried, attempting to resolve the issue.Describe your OS & version, the version of Inkscape and the installer you used, plus any special hardware like tablet/stylus or multiple monitors.Bonus points, if you:Attach* a screenshot of the issue.Attach* an example SVG file that has the issue.
