Workspace : Task Manager Window : Closing Projects with Pending Tasks
 
Closing Projects with Pending Tasks
If you close a project or quit Pro Tools | First while tasks are still pending (either in the Active or Paused Tasks panes of the Task window) Pro Tools asks if you want to cancel, or complete the pending tasks. You can choose to open the Task window and wait for pending tasks to complete, cancel the pending tasks, or quit. If you quit, some tasks are canceled. Tasks that involve file copies are remembered and restarted when you relaunch Pro Tools.
