How to stop Dota 2 Workshop tools download?

How to stop Dota 2 Workshop tools download? - Disk brake in car service workshop

I have mistakenly clicked the download Dota 2 workshop tools button inside the game. Now it is downloading 5GB of content. I don't want to download this. So I canceled the download from Steam. But after a Steam restart, the download is starting from the beginning and each time I have to stop it manually. Is there a way to stop this completely? Thanks in advance.

EDIT:

I have tried clearing the download folder and clearing the app cache folder. Both do not work.



Best Answer

select your game in steam, go to parameters, DLC tab, and uncheck the workshop tools to download.

Problem solved.
