clean install problem

A number of years ago, I purchased the SH collection on Steam. Love the game. I've been trying for the life of me...to get a clean installation of SH4. I've been spending a few days now uninstalling and reinstalling using various suggestions across the web. Every time I start up, i go to load game, and sure as heck...there is all of my previously saved games.
So...I went to steam support, deleted the files entirely from my account. As if I had never even purchased them. Went through all the standard procedures...disable cloud updating, clear history, regedit the files, add/remove...apps and system reboot etc etc. Then, I went to ubi and bought the SH4 Gold digital. Downloaded and installed into a desktop folder.
launched the game and went to load game....there it is. Same saves...as if I had never deleted it. How is this happening? Im clearly missing something. Any help or suggestions please.
Win 10
