u/Status-Nerve-6377

So I started a new game recently and it did this really weird thing where the new save file had a bunch of the old data still on it, so like i already owned the storage facility and the bungalow right from the start, they were fully staffed with all the people I hired in the last save and fully furnished with all the stuff i placed in it too.

Basically, can i delete the savegame data at the file level to prevent this from happening again?
