I selected the Rename option to rename raw files on Import from my Windows 11 C drive. That worked. Then I tried to import a different set of files from the C drive, but specifically unchecked the Rename option. However, the files were still mistakenly renamed.
Thanks Bill for your suggestion. I found the problem. Under the "Apply During Import" tab, I selected a previously saved import preset to populate the keywords; however, I didn't realize that it was also changing the setting under the File Renaming tab to rename the import files from a previous import session. So I updated the preset so that the Rename Files checkbox is unchecked and it works as expected.
