Deleted files from my computer?

I just downloaded Plex to my computer and added my media folder to be uploaded and sorted, but when some of the files weren’t being properly sorted, I deleted the playlist so I could rename files on my computer and re-upload them, but I discovered that the files that were uploaded were all gone?
How is Plex able to delete files FROM MY COMPUTER? I just wanted to delete the playlist from my server!

Plex can delete files, if you tell it to.

Not sure how much more clear it can be worded.
