PP CC 12.0.1 Why Duplicating video files on import?

When I import files into a project, seems as if Premiere is duplicating the original video files.  When I reveal project clips in the finder, Premiere looks as if it's using the original files, not the duplicates.  Is this a setting? Is something else doing this?  This is new to me for PP CC 2018.  I'm working on an iMac 10.11.6.  I used to convert my camera files to ProRes but I don't anymore, I just run a backup of everything on another drive.  Files are from an DJI Osmo and a Canon MKIII.  See photos below. 

Help!! And thank you!!

Setting up your system to Premiere Pro

Thanks! I've reviewed the setup and my settings and scratch disks are the same as in PP CC 2017. I was editing on CC 2017 and looks like that's still on my system so worst case I can go back to it. What setting do you think is creating this in CC 2018?
