Where are my files?

Some files show up in iCloud. Are they permanently there or still on my hard drive? If they are only in the iCloud I would like to move them back to my iMAC. I no longe want to use the iCloud app. I want my files on my computer only. What an I do?

iMac 27″, macOS 15.0

You can use iCloud or not. Here are the settings: Change iCloud settings on Mac - Apple Support

Your files are located on your local drive regardless whether or not you are using iCloud.
