How to stop PHPStorm from automatically refactoring my code


I renamed one of my files and phpstorm asked if I wanted to do a refactor on my project. I accidentally clicked yes to "Refactor", and it changed a bunch of the variable names in a handful of random files in my project. Not a big deal. I'm using GIT so I just reverted those files.

It sometimes refactors the files instantly, and other times it won't refactor them for a few hours, but it's constantly changing them making it really hard to get any work done as it continues to break my project.

How can I stop this refactor process?
