Automate task without closing the files in the batch

I created an automation to run accessibility checks on documents. It runs great but the files close immediately. I need to have them stay open after the check runs so I can see the results. So far, I haven't figured out how to make that happen. I'd appreciate your help!

Not possible. However, it's possible to collect the file paths into a global array and then use a script later on to re-open them, but you can't open more than 50 files at once.

Bummer. Not surprising but bummer. I can only handle having 10 open at once anyway before I get confused so the upper limit is not a problem.

Thank you for this information! I appreciate it very much.

So the option I suggested (using a button after the Action to re-open the files) doesn't work for you, or you don't know how to implement it? Because if it's the latter then I can do it for you, for a small fee, if you're interested.
