WordPress How to Make a Website with WordPress Customizing WordPress Themes How to Make Child Themes

Why aren't my local WordPress themes folder and uploaded site folder updating to the changes I make in WordPress?

When I add a new theme, it only updates on the WordPress site. It does not update in Themes in my computer's WordPress folder. It also does not update the content folder on my folder list on the FTP software (Cyberduck).

As an example, I just installed a new theme from WordPress.org. I activated the new theme. WordPress shows it as the active theme.

I refreshed Cyberduck, it does not show a new themes folder. And In my Finder (my computer), there is no new themes folder in my wp-content - themes folder.
