How to stop Dota 2 Workshop tools download?

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.

follow the steps:

1. go to "Library" on steam

2. right click on DOTA2 and go to "Properties"

3. there are 5 tabs. The last one is "DLC". Click on it

4. In a box there is an option "DOTA 2 workshop tools DLC". Remove the tick mark.

What you have to do is right clicking Dota 2 in the library menu followed by a click on "view downloadable content" and then "un-tick" the check box after Dota 2 workshop tools DLC.

NO! there wrong!

What you do is you right-click on dota 2 go to view downloadable content it will pop-up witha box un-tick dota 2 DLC packs click close
