Machine Sim issue

Has anyone has issues with machine sim moving the raw stock around on you. I have been building a tomestone type fixture for the last few days and it is a large project. A couple hundred layers 50 or so WCS. Machine sim has been handling it like a champ but today it got real buggy on me. I have the fixture, raw stock(s) and finshed parts all controlled by layers and when I went to check machine sim all the raw stocks where rotated 40 degs out of position. I shut down MC and restarted it and it fixed it. A hour or so later it did it again. This time restarting it did not fix it. I rebooted it but the error was still there. I saved off a copy of the file to zip it up and sent it to my support but when I opened the saved file it was fine.but even after multiple saves and closes the original file would not fix itself

 

What I did find it the original file is that if I switch to another machine then switch it back to my machine it clears it up. It seems like a swap file is getting corrupted but it is funny in that it is always the same error. I am wondering if others have seen this or is this a issue with my system.

I am trying to work with inhouse on this but I can not send files do to the information that is in them. I did send the some screen captures but I can not post that on line. I hope someone from CNC sees this. This has to have something to do with temp files. I found not only if I use "Save As" it fixes the issue but if I just move the file from one sub folder to another in windows explored when I open the file the errors are fixed.
