On this page it states:

Description

subplot divides the current figure into rectangular panes that are numbered rowwise. Each pane contains an axes object. Subsequent plots are output to the current pane.

How do I get it to stop doing that?

If I've called subplot previously then I call plot in the command window to quickly check some data the new plot updates the last plotted subplot.

Thank you for your help in advance.

To force MATLAB to create new figure, you need to call figure function before calling the plot.

Unfortunately there is no such option. The only way you can ensure the plot goes where you want it to go, you should pass the axes handle as the first argument of your plot function. This would ensure the plotting uses the correct axes. You can also alternatively call axes(existing), subplot(existing), figure(existing) to make them the current axes / current figure that will be used to plot.

% example
f = figure;
a = axes(f);
plot(a,1:10,1:10);
f2 = figure;
a1 = subplot(2,1,1);
plot(a1,1:10,1:10);
a2 = subplot(2,1,2)
plot(a2,1:10,1:10);
hold(a1,'on');
plot(a1,10:-1:1,1:10);
subplot(a2);
plot(10:-1:1,1:10);
figure(f);
hold(gca,'on');
plot(10:-1:1,1:10);
