[Tex/LaTex] Remove list of tables and list of figures from table of contents

Question

I have seen some similar questions in the forums, but did not understand the answers provided.

Is there a way I could remove lists of tables and figures from my toc?

Here is my a M.W.E similar to the original document.

\documentclass{abntex2}

\begin{document}

{...}

\end{document}

Answer 1

abntex2 is a class that loads memoir as base class, which in turn provides starred versions of \tableofcontents, \listoffigures and \listoftables, so using those macros removes the listing of the \listof... in the ToC.

The manual of abntex2 explicitly mentions \listoffigures* etc. on page 31 (however, in Portuguese)

\documentclass[
    12pt,               
    openright,          
    oneside,        
    a4paper,                    
    english,
    brazil,         
    ]{abntex2}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}        
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}        
\makeatother
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{pifont}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{changepage}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{lipsum}             
\usepackage[brazilian,hyperpageref]{backref}    
\usepackage[alf]{abntex2cite}   
\usepackage{placeins}
\usepackage{flafter} 


\makeindex

\begin{document}
\pdfbookmark[0]{\contentsname}{toc}
\tableofcontents*

\renewcommand*\listfigurename{Lista de figuras}
\listoffigures*

\listoftables*
\cleardoublepage

\end{document}
