Looked into one of the  Forum Post, User is looking to disable SEP from Console.

As such there is no option to do that.

Can we have an option to Right Click on the client in Clients tab and then Run Command on Client to Disable Endpoint/AutoPrtect.

There seems to be a problem

There seems to be a problem with that design.

If you disable the SEP client service, then you must have an option to enable it as well. However, thats not possible, as if the SEP client is disabled, it wont be able to communicate with the SEPM to get further commands.

Cheers,
Aniket

Autoprotect

Autoprotect can be disabled from the console in the Antivirus and Antispyware policy.

If you wanted to disable only one client, make a group with a policy that disables Autoprotect and then move only that client to that group temporarily.
