I am experiencing the same problem.  I am using Adobe Pro DC.  I incorrectly Bate stamped the documents.  I tried to remove the numbering and I get the same message above.  There is too many documents to redact the numbering.  I have tried to use the wizard to create a new action and it does not help.

Same. This needsto be resolved quickly. I spent 5 hours renoving numbers and redoing them and all day today trying to get the action created. It did not work. I am able to load multiple pdfs but then there's no way to start the process of removing.

The link is not working but I did Google it. To be clear I am looking for instructions to remove bates numbers for multiple files at once. This workled great before the subscription plan. I need this feature quite often but most do it 1 pdf at a time
