Hi New_be ,
The file you will choose behind "Sample File" is used to determine the correct file format to use, such as text, Excel workbook, or JSON file. And you don't need to choose one-by-one of the files to load it , just click option "Combine & Transform Data ".
To combine binary files in Power Query Editor, select Content (the first column label) and select Home > Combine Files. Or you can just select the Combine Files icon next to Content.
For reference:
Combine files (binaries) in Power BI Desktop
