# Deactivating commands

If you would like to temporarily turn off one or more of the commands within your Training Profile, you can do so by toggling the switch to the left of those commands.

Turning a command OFF will adjust your Training Profile to only include the remaining commands. This will usually result in increased performance for the active commands. Use this feature if you want to use a subset of commands within a profile.

Toggle the switch again to turn the command back ON.

*Note 1: You must have one command active at all times.*

*Note 2: Deactivating a command in EmotivBCI will deactivate it for other applications running on your computer (e.g. Node-RED).*
