unity - prevent animation from moving the character

As stated in the question I've this problem: I'm using Unity and when playing an animation my character moves from point A to point B without my consent. Here's the code:

public class Walk : MonoBehaviour {

    private Animator humanAnimator;
    private iInputProvider input;

    private void Start()
    {
        input = new KeyBoardInput();

        humanAnimator = GetComponent();
        walkMe = GetComponent();
    }

    private void FixedUpdate()
    {
        walk();
    }

    private void walk()

    {
        InputWrapper inputWrp = input.GetInputValues();

        animateWalk(inputWrp.verticalMove);
    }

    private void animateWalk(float verticalMove)
    {
        if (-0.1 <= verticalMove && verticalMove <= 0.1) //stand still
        {

            humanAnimator.SetBool("Walk", false);
            Debug.Log(humanAnimator.GetBool("Walk"));
        }
        else if (verticalMove > 0.1) // animate walk forward if the player is walking forward
        {
            humanAnimator.SetBool("Walk", true);
            Debug.Log(humanAnimator.GetBool("Walk"));
        }
        else if (verticalMove < -0.1)
        {

            // walk backward animation needed
        }

    }
}

Note that nowhere in the code I change the object position, i just start the animation. Here's the result:

note that it's not the effect of the gif, the character actually resets its position after the animation is terminated. I was expecting the character to "run on the place". Anybody has some idea how can I fix this?

EDIT: if I uncheck the "Apply root motion" check box I've this result: https://imgur.com/4FdeCKH . Maybe it could be useful to know that I can't click on "Generate root motion curve" in my animation inspector because it's all uneditable: https://imgur.com/9q3h1cd

Answer

There is an option on the Animator Component called "Apply Root Motion" this basically asks if you want the animation itself to control character motion(true, checked) or handle it yourself (false, unchecked), In your case you likely want it disabled.

for extra information on the Animator Component

If you end up on this question from google and the above doesn't help and you've also got your animations from Mixamo try re-downloading the animation with "In Place" ticked, if not ticked it applies root motion that unity cannot override.
