2019.6.0 Won't Open Older PTX Files
ProTools 2019.6.0 on Mojave 10.14.5
When I open older PTX files it acts normal loading files quickly until done then the menu bar gets dark, the session is not available, PT is frozen, AND Force Quit won't open. It's running fine on new and current projects. I think the older files are v2012 and v2011 files. Any ideas? Thanks!

I haven't seen this here. Can you restore your data by import session? If you don't, then perhaps the session file is corrupted.

Sometimes Force Quit is grayed out on dock, in which case you open Activity Monitor and kill it there.

Haven't had to do that but good advice. What I was wondering about was did the op make a slip in what he wrote when he said Force Quit won't open.

Cmd-Opt-Esc also works to bring up a floating window to force quit applications.

OK Reply-To-All on the Force Quit: It literally will not open by CMD-OPT-ESC either. Strangest thing. Like, it works before I open the PT session, then it does not when PT hangs up. Activity Monitor is a good idea, though--will try it, and the Shift+Open Sesisons, and Import. Thank you for the tips... will reply with results.

OK in the interest of full disclosure and at risk of looking like an idiot:
Thanks everyone for the help I did learn a few new tricks and that is much appreciated!
