How do I stop a Automator Script to execute... randomly

I have successfully created a script to resize images.

Now, everytime I clik on a file or on a folder Automator runs that script and I get promped to select the file to resize.

How do I stop or control this? Thanks for the help

Fix your script's triggering criteria (i.e., on what basis it activates). Is this a folder action? Folder actions are associated with a specific folder not all folders.


If you want to remove the automator script your user local scripts are most likely in ~/Library/Services (that's where mine go for my finder contextuals) or maybe ~/Library/Workflows.
