I can't save any projects anymore. I have to go on hiatus. [FIXED]

For some reason, it's impossible for me to save my remixes. I even tried to download the remix and upload it to Scratch again, but that wouldn't save either!
Edit: Now when I try the download-reupload trick, the project fails to be created! I get a “ghost” version of the project instead. It's still functional, but impossible to save.
Edit Edit: I don't think I can save anymore. Period.
Edit Edit's Edit: I have to go on hiatus until there is a successful fix. I might have to sign in on another computer.

Edit number after three: Problem solved: hiatus over.
My main browser / operating system: macOS Macintosh X 10.15, Firefox 90.0, No Flash version detected

Perhaps you could restart your computer or Internet router. I have a mac as well and they are slow, but if those don't work I don't know how, sorry.

I never really restart my computer—but I do take it off wifi when I need to… most of the time. But, even then, I don't use the offline editor programs very often. I restarted and it got fixed… partially. Still can't save, but no ghost projects.
But that was for that download-reupload trick.

What project are you trying to remix? I think you may have reached a size limit for an asset or the code, so to verify that, can you give a link to the project you're trying to remix?

No need—it's pretty much 50 megabytes.

That doesn't make sense, please provide a LINK to the project you're trying to remix.

@KittyKatHunter
Uh.. I don't know how I could help at all. Maybe signing out of your scratch account and then signing back in would work. But other than that I can't think of anything that might help.

I can't save anymore at all, so there are some extras.
The original: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/537137262/
The remix: https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1qIl_R2MOPByFdeLW_PIyMFJykMEIPezZ
An original project of Skid and Pump doing the Henchman's dance that won't save: https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=14fWfY9hxSn0jeWZR-7jAWItz-2TplTd-
Edit: Possibly the only thing I can save. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/557609710/

The sound “funky” is WAYY too large, convert it into mp3 to compress it. The size limit is 10MB, but the file size is 48MB!!

I just took a big risk by downloading a file that wasn't scanned for viruses by ███

Whenever I use sounds like that nothing happens. I wonder what's different between now and my previous projects.
Edit: Oh I found out
Edit 2: I used WAV export from Logic Pro X. FACEPALM AAA

It was virus-free. Promise. Anyway, I manually extracted the project and converted c44af85462ab60f2b50068ae3ab36736.wav (funky.wav) into an mp3 and recompressed it. I'ma go test it.
Edit: It resulted in complete silence.
Edit Edit: I still have the original file. First, I will test it as a WAV again, then an MP3.
Edit Edit Edit: The conversion worked. I should really downgrade to MP3 in Scratch projects more often LOL
