Restoring Images From Trash

I am a new user (as of today). I'm trying to organize my images into various Projects, Groups and Albums. I am finding that I am getting an Activities window that tells me that Capture One is 'Restoring 1 of 102 images from trash - 0 seconds left'. I have two entries in the Activities window saying the same thing. This window is 'stuck', always on screen, and the little flower petals symbol is constantly rotating.

I presume I must have done something wrong. Here is what I did:

1) In the catalogue, I imported all images (including subfolders) from my 'Photography' folder on my Hard Disc. This was a little over 3,000 files.
2) I then went through the list of images, sorted by 'extension'. I deleted all non-RAW images (TIFFs and JPEGs) from the catalogue. This amounted to some 700+ files.
3) I then emptied the Trash.
4) I created a number of Projects, within which I placed some Albums - eg USA [Project]/Parks [Group]/Grand Canyon [Album]
5) I select images from the 'All Images' section of my Catalogue Collection and as soon as I drag them to 'Grand Canyon' the Activities window pops up and sticks.

It would be helpful to know: a) what (if anything) I did incorrectly; and b) how I can fix the issue that I have. I'd rather not have to start over with the catalogue.
