Time Lapse using Premiere Elements 2019

Hello - I've searched and found time-lapse for virtually every other version except 2019 *which I just installed. In my previous version (2018), if I want to make a time lapse from a series of still photos, it was easy.

Go to Add Media

Find the files and "select numbered stills"

The program gathered all of the stills into a mini movie and allowed me to import them as one file

With 2019, everything goes fine until I get to importing, they insist on importing them into my computer and after importing they are added to a new project as single photos and I cannot find out how to fix this. Very frustrating since I tend to make a lot of these little time-lapse movies and it used to be so easy.
