I would like to disable some local accounts temporary. I cannot find disable or suspend button in access controls settings menu. Is there a way to disable the account?

that is a shame that after 5 years and several versions we still cannot disable a user 🤔
By the way, you cannot leave a user without a role. You need to create a role with no authorizations and give them.

I tried remove all rows from a target user but I cannot. It seems to need at least one role.

There is no way to disable accounts unfortunatly.
Some suggestions:
- Take away all their roles including user.
- Change the passwords on the accounts (you will need to give them new passwords when you are done)
- You could edit web.conf and use the
acceptFrom
parameter to limit logins only to specific IPs or a subnet
Hope this is helpful
