# How to Temporarily Disable a Plugin
To temporarily disable a plugin you need to:
1. Log in to your Multicraft panel [here](https://mc.ggservers.com/site/login) and stop your server.

—
2. Click on `Files`, then on `FTP Files Access` and log in using the Multicraft password.


—
3. Open the `plugins` folder.

—
4. Find the plugin you want to disable, right-click on it, then click on `Rename`.

—
5. Rename the plugin adding at the end `.disabled` (after the `.jar`).

—
6. Start Your Server
Now you just temporarily disabled the plugin!
|| NOTE: The configuration for the plugin will remain untouched as it is usually stored in a separate folder with the same name as the plugin.
—
# How to Enable it Back
To enable it back, you just need to remove the `.disabled` at the end and restart the server after for it to be loaded back.
