Last target end time was ignored, I have a target that was set as an end time of 10:52, but the sequence ended early at 05:22 with a reason of “Target Marked as Past of End Time: True”

That last error is just something I need to remove. It’s not related to this issue. Are you using the eagle ASCOM drivers are the Eagle native drivers for these switches?
The scenario here is not clear to me. Logs may help… Is it that you are trying to leave the sequence running during the day and just start up or something else?
No, the sequence end time was 05:50, but it stopped at 05:22 stating that the last target end time had passed, which it had not, as the end time was 10:52, you can see it here:

ASCOM drivers. I can produce this on demand, it seems that if you abort the sequence with end of sequence options selected, all the end of sequence options run perfectly except for setting the switch state. Allowing the sequence to end “Normally” sets the switch state as expected
Yes indeed, it is only when you manually abort the sequence with end of sequence options selected that it does not. I have not tested an automated abort sequence yet though
Do you have a camera warmup included in end of sequence options? If so, it’s worth noting that end of sequence switch state will not happen until after warmup completes.
Yes, and when an imaging sequence ends “Naturally” the Switch State changes happen as expected. But when you cancel a sequence, end of sequence options run, which includes camera warm up, but the expected behaviour of changing the switch state after the camera warm up completes does not happen.
Ok… I think I am going to shut the alpha down and move SGPro 4.5 into beta.
Thank you all very much for helping with 4.5’s very early state.
Note: This is not to say that all the things you identified in the various alpha builds are corrected, just that it seems generally stable enough to enter beta.
Just installed the BETA and entered Equipment Profile Manager to delete the 3 installed profiles, (Cannon template, LRGB template and NB template). Upon selecting any of these profiles I get the below message:
Ok, so with respect to these 3 starter profiles, I have gone ahead and removed them for now. The issue here is that the profiles do not conform to new standards in SGPro 4.5. While it would be easy enough to update them, I think that when I have time (which is not right now), I will make install of these profiles an installer option instead of a default option.
So, for those of you who delete these every time, you should no longer need to do this…
