2013 Workflow Continuously Restarts in 2019 Environment

We are upgrading our 2013 on prem farm to 2019 on prem. We've completed creating the 2019 farm and migrated the data using AvePoint, a migration tool. I have a 2013 workflow that set to run on change but it continuously restarts itself on the 2019 farm. It restarted 21 times in one minute and locks the item for editing while it's running. Is there a setting we're missing?

In our 2013 farm, the 2013 workflows that are set to run on change will only run/be triggered if someone physically updates the item manually. In other words if the system makes updates behind the scenes after the form is submitted the 2013 workflow is not triggered.
