This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are trying to configure WPML on your site and want to ensure that some pages are not translated. You are unsure how to select specific pages to not be translated.
Solution:
We recommend that you avoid selecting "Translate everything" when setting up WPML. Instead, navigate to WPML > Translation Management. Here, you can select only the pages that you want to translate and then send the content for automatic translation. Alternatively, you can manually translate the pages if you prefer. For more detailed guidance, please visit https://wpml.org/documentation/automatic-translation/#sending-content-to-automatic-translation.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If you still need assistance, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Hi there.

You have full control over the pages you send for translation if you don't select "Translate everything" when setting up WPML.

As shown here (https://wpml.org/documentation/automatic-translation/#sending-content-to-automatic-translation), you can go to WPML > Translation Management > Select only the pages that you want to translate > then you can send the content for automatic translation (or you can manually translate it if you prefer that instead).

I hope that you will find this information helpful.
