Stop background activation of fonts

Is it possible in InDesign to stop the activation of fonts in the background? Even if I close the document, that asks for the missing fonts, InDesign still tries to activate them. As a result I have a hot laptop and in no time I run out of battery power. Any suggestions?

What do you change after opening File Handling? I'm not able to save a PDF because my program is stuck on trying to download fonts.
