Creo does not have support to limit the number file versions saved. The purge command is available to delete all but the latest version from within Creo Parametric.

 

There are third party scripts and applications that will allow one to specify how many copies to retain when "purging" a folder. Spekan Purge utility has this capability. If I believe that Spekan Purge also supports recursion of sub folders. I am not sure if it has been updated to current Windows OS so YMMV.
