You can't, although Lightroom does seem to do this by mistake sometimes. The reason why there is no such option is simple. If a camera shoots raw+jpeg, then it sometimes makes sense to keep the jpeg as a sidecar for the raw file. Some cameras do not embed a full size preview. In that case the jpeg can be used for quick review instead of the too small embedded preview. That is what the preview import option 'Embedded + sidecar' means. AFAIK, there is no camera that can shoot TIFF+JPEG and a TIFF will normally have a full size preview, so treating a jpeg next to a tiff file as sidecar does not make much sense.

Thank you for your response. One New Year’s resolution was to take the time to clean up my catalog so I would start the year with no issues. However, I have many Tif + JPG files that are linked in the catalog. When the image appears in Lightroom it appears as a single file with the extension “Tif+JPG” and when that image is shown in File Explorer it appears as two separate images: 1 Tif and 1 JPG. In order to have a pristine catalog I have to move them to a separate folder on the Computer, removing them from the Lightroom catalog altogether.

Yes, I have heard that sometimes Lightroom treats the combination of two images with the same name, where one is a jpeg, as if it is a raw+jpeg combination. I'd say this is a bug.

@JohanElzenga Thank you!

With the .TIFF and .JPEG "joined at the hip" in this manner, deleting the image from within Lightroom Classic will delete both files, right?

Yes, it will delete both.
