This will open the select tab, and show you the GENERATE part number. Highlight the number by clicking on it one time, and then click on OK to open it. Alternately you can double click on the item to open it.

Once the part opens, select the little down arrow on the delete button, and select delete immediately. You should now be able to clone parts again.
