Close multiple windows at once on the Mac

If you have multiple windows open of a particular application on the Mac and you want to close them all at once, you can usually do so by using the keyboard shortcut to close a single window and include the "Option" key. For example, to close a Finder window, the command to do so is "Command + W". But if you do "Command + Option + W", it will close all Finder windows.
