Spell editing disaster- crashing

I hate to ask things here, but I can't think of a simple way to fix my problem. Basically, whenever I try to open up my spell editor in a certain map of mine, it crashes. I believe this is because of a spell I made off of starfall that doesn't work ingame. The map will be awful if I can't edit anymore spells, and I can't find a way to reset the spells to default. Can anyone help me please? Eternal gratefulness and what not will be given to you! I've already gotten to 226 versions of the map... don't want to have to start over.

Have you tried to export All Settings from an empty map, and Import All Settings in your new map? this will make you lose all custom abilities, buffs, units, and such, but at least you'll still have the terrain and triggers.

Actually I would take a corrected war3map.w3a from a map, then replace the one in the corrupted map with the extracted thing, then delete the file's (attributes) file to be able to open it in WE, of course take a backup first
