Disabling Components

Disable components on selected game objects and assets by using the checkbox next to the name of the component.

Not all components have this checkbox. For those components, consider removing them when not used or change the values to have the desired non-effect.

Removing Components

To remove a component on a selected game object or asset, right-click on the component and select Remove Component.
