Why does Visual Studio Code keep things (like settings and recently opened files) after reinstalling and how to reset everything?

I want to reset Visual Studio Code on my Laptop entirely and already uninstalled everything, even deleted the .vscode file unter the user file. But after reinstalling, everything is the same as before. The settings are exactly the same and also my recently opened files are shown.

I don’t want to reset everything individually and manually, I want the whole program to be new. Where are all these informations saved and how do I delete them?
