Turn off that option on your Windows PC. See the "Turn on iCloud Photos" section of Set up and use iCloud Photos on your Windows PC - Apple Support
but turn off instead of on.
That's correct and would also be true even if you hadn't turned off iCloud Photos on your PC. Syncing to and from a PC is not like it is with Apple devices. See the following from Get help with iCloud Photos on your Windows PC - Apple Support
When you delete photos and videos from your Apple device or on iCloud.com, they won't delete from your PC. And when you delete a photo or video on your PC, they won't delete in iCloud Photos.
OK - this worked - Thank you. Now if I delete the photos from my PC, they will remain in the cloud and on my phone, correct?
