Fairly new to the apple ecosystem so still trying to get my head around things.
Thanks in advance for your help.
In theory, yes, deleting photos and videos from iCloud folder on a PC will also delete them from iCloud.
If you really want to save space, simply disable iCloud Music Library in iCloud for Windows Settings. That way you can safely delete them from your PC.
If you need to save newer photos and videos to your PC, just login in iCloud on iCloud.com and save them that way.
