Do you get any error while running the solution? Did you check the logs from the txt file?
The access token las 60-90 min and it manage squiring a new token by itself. Not sure if you have any configuration on your environment for the the access token to last 90min.
Number of items is base on the information from the library, which includes folders (if I remember well). But deletions of versions only apply to files and folders are ignored.
You can try running the solution for a subfolder to check if versions are deleted. Based on your description, I'm not sure if the solution is not able to catch the files, not able to delete the versions or a different issue.

Thanks for this tool, ran it on an old site with two libraries. set to delete all but 90 versions The library I targeted as reported by NovaPoint 756576 items. (9 years old)
Runing the tool, it would prompt for re-authentication, as our access tokens last for 7 hours. At times it would ask for re-authentication more than this, but it seem to carry on.
I'm not sure during this time (Authentication expires, and waiting for me to sign back in), it resumes where it stopped.
Only because when it finished, it collected just over 520000 items, short of the 756576 reported. And from the logs no versions deleted.
I check a random file, and had over 190 versions. Checked the log and the whole directory is not listed as being scanned.
Tried another file and same, over 90 versions, but checking the log, not scanned.
(Going to run a script I have, and modified, can target file types, but seems to get throttled when it starts deleting the versions, plus gets when access token expires it dies., but good test to see if it picks up the missing files (targeting excel files)
