Windows 10 Reset / Cloud download
10 Pro 21H1

This is a general question that's puzzled this old pensioner, I have no problem with a reset.
When doing a Reset, I click on Recovery / Reset / Remove Everything / Cloud Download./ Wipe the Drive
There is also the option to reinstall Windows using Local Reinstall.
My understanding of how this is worded is that Local Reinstall uses Windows already on your machine and
Cloud Download downloads a new copy of Windows from MS and installs that.
I always use the Cloud Download but if it is a new download, how come my desktop picture and a couple of
other things are still there when the Recovery has finished.
If it was a download I would have expected just Windows ?
I hope that makes sense.
