   About disabling Protection Features
    

   • One click will instruct the client to disable the module; two clicks will instruct the client to enable the module.
      
   • The text inside the parentheses will reflect what status the module will be set to after the task is applied 
      
   • If you are disabling a module, you should set the time interval for deactivation using the drop-down menu at the bottom of the Protection Features window (the default is a 10 minute deactivation). If you wish to permanently disable a security module, you will need to use Policy Manager.
     
     
4. When you are finished setting the status that will be applied to the client's security modules, click Next.

6. Verify the details of the task in the Task Report window and then click Finish. The task will be applied to the client(s) when they check in to the ESET Remote Administrator Server. You can apply at a later time by checking the "Apply Task After" then set the time and date you wish the task to be rolled out at. Remember that the workstation will need to check in to ESET Remote Administrator and receive this command before the task is actually applied.
