Client made a refund by mistake

[#1]

Hello, I hade a client which is new on upwork.
After finishing the job with his 100% satisfaction and he told me that I did a great job.
By mistake, he requested a refund, And after that, he ends the contract with 5 stars and a great review.
I asked him why he did the refund, He told me that was a mistake and he can't find where to cancel this request.
May you tell me how he cancels his request?

Hi Salma, 

Unfortunately, there's no option to cancel a refund request once it has been initiated. You as a freelancer can respond to it and decline by selecting the second option (I do not approve this request and want to file a dispute). This will then be sent to our Dispute Team. Your client will have the option to ask the team to cancel the refund request and close the dispute.

I got hired for a job. The client approved my milestone after sending my delivery. After two days later, she requested refund request as she thought the job is not successfully completed. But, when I made her clear that the delivery was right and she is facing problem to run the project from her computer. Thus, she got her mistake and now want to cancel the refund request. In this situation, what can she or I do so that i got the payment or refund is cancelled and we can solve our problem?
Please, experienced person share your ideas. I will be grateful to you!
I see the attachment like below where I don't find any option to decline.
Thanks!

You can simply ignore the refund request.

It is not a dispute and won't do anything. There is nothing you or your client need to do. Nothing will happen if you ignore it.

Thanks for replying me. Would my client need to do something? She is
actually new in upwork & perhaps didn’t know how to do it. If I ignore
it, will i get my payment or my payment will be transferred her account?
I am a bit confused about it. Note: she already approved the milestone 2
days ago.
Thanks you a lot again.

No, nobody needs to do anything at all.

You will get your payment as usual after the 5 day security period. Do NOT mix this up with a request to return escrow funds, where you have to either approve or reject the request.

This is a completely different thing.
