Windows 10: Games and other files being synced on accounts.

The computer I use has always been a family computer but as of late I've wanted to make an account for myself. To have my own personal stuff on it. I created the account and when I swapped to it. I realized all the files on the main account are now on my account. If I try deleting them or putting them in a folder it affects the main account as well. I'm not exactly sure how to unsync the files or get rid of them off only my account.


Notes:

I didn't create the account under family either.

I did not get any documents or pictures from the main account.

To delete an account, follow these steps:

1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
