That's odd - just tested here under windows 10 64 bit, using audacity
2.1.3, and, if I use the import command - ctrl + shift + I, and select
multiple tracks initially, it loads them into separate tracks in the
same project.
Same way, if I import them one at a time, using that same command, they
get loaded into same project, as separate tracks?
Stay well

I am trying to combine 3 audio files end-to-end to create 1
composite file. Yes, I will do some editing of the individual
files before I combine them.
I open Audacity and press control-o to open files.
Audacity says select 1 or more files.
I select the 3 files and press enter.
Audacity opens the 3 files, but each file appears to be in a
separate project or instance of Audacity. I have to press alt-tab
to move between the files. I get the same result if I "Import"
rather than "Open" the files.
The first question is how do I get the 3 files into 1 project as
separate tracks. I actually had 2 of the files in a project
yesterday, but I don't know what I have done since then to mess
things up.
After I finish editing the individual tracks, I think I should use
"Align End To End" in the "Tracks" menu to combine the tracks into
1. Is this the best way to combine the files?
After I align the tracks, how can I play the finished product
before I save the file so I can determine if I need to remove any
gaps where the files join?
I appreciate any help.
