In-depth description
What disable does
disable hides the reference you currently have selected in the console: it stops rendering, loses its collision, and can no longer be interacted with. Crucially the object is not deleted — it remains in your save and can be restored at any time.
How to use it
- Open the console with
~. - Click the object you want to remove (its reference ID appears at the top of the screen).
- Type
disableand press Enter.
Use enable to bring a disabled object back. If you want the object gone for good, follow disable with markfordelete, which removes the reference permanently on the next cell reload.
