Sequence Window 'Frozen' at end of sequence

Windows 10 - running 3.1.0.457

First time out this year !!,

While trying trying out the latest version, everything was going great, especially after un-ticking “Re-calibrate auto guider when target changes”, till the end of the session.

By this time Dawn had come, and PHD2 had lost guide star, forcing SGPro to loop through the sequence recovery, so I just initiated sequence abort, with end of sequence events.

After waiting 15 mins for sequence clean-up \ park mount etc. nothing was happening, the Sequence window was ‘greyed-out’ i.e. no control buttons active and bottom corner button showing ‘Aborting’

The main window was ‘operational’ but the bottom left hand was looping through a moving slider “Downloading…”

I then used the EQMod window to Park the mount, so I could at least cap the lenses & get some sleep…

Coming back @ 07:30 I found everything in the same state, but I found that I could at least, in the main window control boxes, turn off camera cooler etc. so all these buttons were active…

Another thing I noticed was that the ‘Telescope’ control applet was controllable, but not ‘mimicking’ the parked status I’d set earlier with the EQMod applet, but the EQMod applet correctly mimics state as set by SGPro…

As an update, I’ve come back to find the system is in the same state, so attempted to start a new sequence, load an older sequence etc. but everything I try results in “A Sequence is currently running. Please stop the current sequence…” but How ?? as there is no Stop sequence button, that I can find …

So I’ve been forced to use Task Manager to kill SGPro.
