Unable to delete duplicate Caegories

A number of duplicate categories have appeared since I updated to Component v3.2.0Beta (I downloaded v3.2.3 Zip but it has upgraded to this version) and Module v3.1.6. I am running JoomIa v2.5

I unpublished the duplicates and then tried to delete them but received an error message saying that I should remove the content first.

I removed all images from the sever, removed all thumbs from the categories and then tried to delete them but still with no success.

Other strange things happen, such as the categories not appearing in the unpublished view, although they show up in the -Select Status- view, which shows everything. Also, when I load images into certain categories, they do not show up in the page.

It is all very strange and I wonder if anyone has any experience of this error. I can provide links and access if needed.

Regards,
David

Hi, there were no changes in database, so my idea was something went wrong while migration (e.g. some columns missing which then prevent from displaying the categories) but between 3.2.0 and 3.2.3 - there were no database updates, so while upgrading nothing changed something in database :idea: .. so really no idea what can be wrong there :idea: :-(
