I don't think I have ever had to go more than 4 times to get it all.
It doesn't actually select anything for me when I select unused in this session. And there are SO many unused files.

It hasn't worked correctly since PT7 I think. Make sure you delete the undo history and then do it again and it usually clears everything.

Exactly this. I used to close and re-open the session, but now I just create and then immediately delete a track. That's the only way I've found to be able to clear the undo queue (without reaching for the mouse that is - someone may have a better shortcut keyboard method...?)
