I had a project that would not stop at end even though I had tried all the suggestions in various postings about this problem. I searched thru all automations, looked for hidden midi events, selected all tracks and did the delete hole routine, checked for hidden tracks, etc, etc. I even temporarily deleted every track and buss, and still nothing would solve this problem on this one particular project. But then thankfully ripple edit comes along - Solved in about 10 seconds!
