How to prevent Google Scholar from merging two different papers? I have two papers published at the same IEEE conference (at the same year).

Since they have been indexed in GS, they are being merged every few days. That is, I manually need to "unmerge" them, just for GS to automatically merge them again a few days later.

I'm not sure why this happens. They have completely different names. Perhaps the reason is that IEEE has page numbers of 1-9 for all papers that year (i.e., they didn't actually allocate page numbers but just had 1-9 for all).

How can I make GS stop merging these papers?
[Update: Multiple users have reported that this doesn't work.] 


Go to your Google Scholar profile and bring up the add article dropdown, click on "Configure article updates": 
Select the radio button for "Don't automatically update my profile" and click the "Update settings" button: 
When Scholar wants to merge your papers, instead of going ahead it will send an email to ask if that is the correct course of action.
