Windows 10: How do I delete previous PC backups?

Hey, I've been having some trouble with my Windows 11 PC, and I've had to reset it a few times. When I go to the setup, it keeps asking if I want to restore from an old backup from previous PCs. Is there a way to delete all those previous PC backups?
