Auto-backup should DEFINITELY be disabled. That's the FIRST thing the folks in the Bioware:NWN2 Toolset forums recommend doing.

RTB, were you running auto-back-up?

There are a bunch of tips in the Toolset forums for saving and backing up modules. In fact this on the very page of that forum in the FAQ:

"- turn off Autosave. Plan to take manual backups of your work. Important: If working in directory mode, you must disable autosave. Not doing this risks having your work deleted.
- If you're working in module mode (saving your file as a .mod file) try saving your module as a directory. (File | Save Directory). To open it again, use File | Open Directory.
- If you're working in directory mode, trying saving in module mode."
