Close Multiple Files at Once...

This tool makes it easy to close several open files (workbooks) at once, without having to close them one by one.

It's useful when:

• You have many files open and want to close most of them quickly
• You want complete control over which files to close or keep open, with the option to review and save changes before closing

Features:

• View a list of all open files (with optional full path shown)
• By default, all files except the active workbook are pre-selected
• Select or unselect the files you want to close
• Choose to show a warning when closing unsaved files. You can then:
  • Save the file before closing
  • Close without saving changes
  • Cancel closing that file

Tip:
This tool helps clean up your workspace quickly, while keeping important or unsaved work open.
