Is it possible to QA an archived activity without activating it?

When an activity is archived, the option to QA the activity is removed.

As far as I can tell the only way to change this is to activate the activity, which I don't want to do.

Hi Andrew,

As documented in Activity QA , Activity QA does not display content for archived activities or activities that are past its end date.

However, if you would like to QA the same, you can edit the archived activity and save it again without making any changes. This will leave the activity in an inactive state and you can use the QA links. There is no need to activate it again.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, exactly what I needed.

If I were to expand on this further, all I would request is that the UI made this 'un-archiving' behaviour more obvious.
Edit: Also, thanks for such a fast response!
