How to stop VS2017 preparing the docker images

I use VS2017 (15.7) with Win10 (1803) and Docker (18.03).
My solution contains a Docker-Project (dcproj) which defines how my docker container should start.

Whenever I open Visual Studio or change code it automatically starts preparing the container.

========== Preparing Containers ========== Getting Docker containers ready... <snip> Step 1/4 : FROM microsoft/aspnet:4.7.1-windowsservercore-1709 <snip> Successfully built cbde0ec28022 <snip> Done! Docker containers are ready.

How can I stop that behavior? It eats up the performance of my laptop! When I want to start the container I would start, but building all the time is too much.

Is there a setting for this?

To clarify SeriousM's answer, the exact setting is:

Tools -> Options... -> Container Tools ->
Single Project -> Run containers on project open.

You may also want to change the same setting in:

[..] -> Container Tools -> Docker Compose.

This also applies to VS 2019 and 2022.

The solution is by disabling it under

Tools->Options menu and then Container Tools->Settings
