I made 20 KML points in Google Earth, and put it in gis - I want to save it in a single file, right now they are 20 different files. How can it be done?

What I want to have is a single gpx file.

You should be able to get what you want in essentially one step, using the "Merge vector layers" tool. You can search for it in the toolbox, or find it via the menu bar at Vector>Data Management Tools>Merge vector layers.

Merge Vector Layers

From there, it's a simple matter of selecting all of your open KMLs in the "Layers to merge" section and choosing the export file location, name, and .gpx format.
