SOLVED -- disable auto select layer

I'm assuming this isnt a usual question, as i cant find an answer any where! however, since the update the other day, when i select items in a group of layers, it now no longer selects the group, it selects the layer inside the group. It took me AGES to move from photoshop to illustrator and get used to this, and now its changed

Ive seen videos of the new illustrator update though, and see nothing the same of the issue i have!

so in short

select group, not layer

possible?

---EDIT---

Turns out the file i was using is all layers rather than items within groups... panic over
