You can always use CLI command for managing modules.
Disable module:
1 |
$ bin/magento module:disable Vendor_ModuleName |
Enable module:
1 |
$ bin/magento module:enable Vendor_ModuleName |
And you can check status of all modules:
1 |
$ bin/magento module:status |
It is useful to build a habit of controlling your installation via bin/magento. Also it will help to avoid any new features introduced for module commands.
Hope it helps !
