# Job Shutdown Adobe After Effects Action

The Job Shutdown Adobe After Effects Action node can be used to close a running instance of Adobe's After Effects on a Windows or macOS client.

{% hint style="info" %}
The application will be closed forcibly, ensuring that the action proceeds without interruption, even if a warning or save dialog would typically prevent closure by a manual user action.
{% endhint %}
