It appears from your question that your objective is to create a way
for the user to be able to select multiple file(s) through a single
dialog that shows all files/folders, so that they don't have to
select each file/folder individually. Is this requirement correct? If
so, then you can use the filedialog.askopenfilenames (with an s in the
end) that is able to do exactly this:
from tkinter import filedialog
files = filedialog.askopenfilenames(parent=self.master,title='Choose
the Music file(s)', filetypes=(("xml files", "*.xml")))
I'd used this code in one of my projects where the user wanted to
select multiple xml files for processing by using one single browse
button. Hope this helps.
