Constant Toolpath generation

There was an update a long time ago where the Toolpaths would start automatically regenerating if one operation was changed. It started bogging down the computer. I dealt with it until now! I have about 100 operations that are trying to regenerate if I make a change to 1. Its freezing everything up. 

 

I have unchecked both of the boxes in the prompts under the manufacturing settings. It still goes crazy

 

How do I get this auto generate issue to stop?

Hi @ICanSpinIt,

 

You can Protect toolpaths (right click on the toolpath in the Browser and select Protect) to stop it from being recalculated.

Hope this helps,

The tool paths were all locked and it would still re-generate. The answer below solved the issue. Thank you for replying

Took me about 10 minutes for the computer to allow me to un-check it, but that solved the issue. I have a fast computer again!! Thank you
