Use click and <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+click to build up your list, or an [advanced search](https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/commands/view/search/advanced/) to select a great number of entries. After your selection is done, the command is available using either:

1. Right-click the entry or entries, then select ***Edit – Edit (special actions)***.
