Is this a bug or has the update changed some basic settings?

Hi Guys
as the title says" is this a bug" ?
since i updated i can no longer import audio file to different tracks, before it would ask you if you wanted the files on one track or independent tracks . mow that choice has gone and everything get put into the project on one track … anoying

however i have a work around >:

make new project as normal but instead of importing files .:
drag them in from file explorer manualy this works
this is anoying to say the least.. if its a bug then i guess i can live with it because these things happen , but if cubase hase overwritten itself and destroyed a fundimental thing like file imports then i am not a happy bunny ..
anyone know where i can check if there is a file import preference that can check and see if it has been overwritten and maybe i could turn the toggle button back on ??
Cheers

It´s a kind or paradigm shift in the update, it´s a new preference setting:

You have set the *On Import Audio Files" option to Use Settings
grafik

@Tony_H wants the other option which opens a dialog window.
It still works as expected here (Cubase Pro 15.0.20, Win 10).

yes, I know, I just pointed him to the new setting options,

thanks guys you are the best
cheers
