Try doing Ctrl + Shift + F then press Shift + Enter, (or press the Open in Find Window), to have all occurrences listed in a dedicated window. E.g. see: enter image description here

  1. Press Ctrl + Shift + F or Windows or Cmd + Shift + F on Mac to search for a string.
  2. From the result list select which you would want to open by holding Ctrl (Windows) or Cmd (MacOS) and clicking on the entries: enter image description here
  1. Press Enter to open all the selections.

If you would want to open every file from the search results, select the first entry, hold Shift and select the last entry, and press Enter.
