Elements Organizer help says I can create an album directly from a file folder. Directions don't work; program "sees" only a few of two dozen files. Do I have to import them all before this can be used?.

On hard disk I have a folder “Animals” with sub-folders e.g. “Kitties,” “Birds,” “Mammals,” etc. I want to create an Album for each of these. Directions in online Help say:

*choose folder from My Folders list;

*right click folder, select “Create instant album.” thumbnails should appear. But only 3 or 4 out of 25 or so appear;

How to make this work to include all photos?
