Update Contacts to Outlook - Contact Location?

I have been trying PC's Update Contacts to Outlook (Microsoft365), but I don't quite understand where contact list it goes to. I don't want it to merge with the contact list I have. How can I control what contact list it goes to? Can I create a empty contact list that would except the contacts from PC? It would work if a new contact list was created and then I could just delete the old ones.

The program will export to the main Contact list in Outlook usually called CONTACTS. What you should do is create a new 'folder', move all the contacts in the main CONTACT 'folder' to the new one, then do the update from Outlook. I don't believe you can 'rename' the main Contacts folder so that's not an option.
