I can be able to merge excels there is no problem.

But when i doing some actions in excels and while closing those opened excels at that time getting excel open errors as below hang state

I want to clear that error and close excel smoothly, because i my automation has some many records might occur again so has to close every excel without any issue.

Are you trying to close it manually?? As per my understanding if you are using multiple excels to merge it will auto close.

Thanks

Yes but in background excels are opened. So, in that finding excels using element exist and closing excels.

We have to do automation after continuous to another input file, so we have clear background excels as well.

I hope in the activity itself there should be option to close instead of doing it by clicking on close button.

Thanks

oing it by clicking on close

while doing with 500 excels automation, merging after that sometimes background excels is opening because of that next file automation is not working. So added this code.
