It sounds like you used copy and import. That will copy the files to new
directory and name it according to options set. One of the option is
keep the original name. The fine manual has good description.
Personally, I like the new scheme because it allows me to import from
multiple sources for one event.
Looks like you should have used add to library rather than copy and import.

Hi,
Upon upgrading to 3.6 I have now discovered that DT has renamed all of
the images in the folder I opened today with 20211029- 1104.CR2.
I have never set that up, I only ever run on the camera images
numbers, how else do I get to keep track of the frames so that I can
prepare the next prefix in my numbering scheme. The only numbers that
matter are from the camera, I can only guess that these renamed images
are copied somewhere that DT knows, but why would I want to have two
versions of my RAW files.
I am shell shocked and bewildered, why is DT fcking with my Data storage?
I am really distressed, this has been a bad day for me.
