how to download on to your mac laptop and not on your icloud

I am transferring and downloading my items from my old computer to my Mac. However, when I am transferring it is downloading into my iCloud and not my computer. Is there any way to download my documents/items and not to my iCloud?

Windows, Windows 6

Do you have the iCloud Drive enabled along with the Desktop and Documents folder options? That's what it sounds like. You can check in the System/iCloud/iCloud Drive/Options preference pane.
