How to disable custom module in magento

Question

I have overridden core file in my custom module extension.

Disabling this module using magento admin panel is not working.

system -> configuration -> Advanced
Module Name (drop down option - disable)

Thanks in advance.

What is the error you are getting. Not working can mean anything. — Stanley Mungai

He means disabling it isn't working ... he's right of course disabling only disables the output. — byronyasgur

When we disable module from admin, it only disables html output on frontend.

Module config file still loads when module is disable from admin, so your override functionality is still loaded with this module, so try to disable that module from config file.

Try <active>false</active> in your module etc .xml file.

Are there any caches to refresh, scripts to run? What I see is that the module is still active despite the XML file (in my case it's an _all.xml with many module defs at once) the module is set to false.

Yes you need to refresh cache from backend if cache is enable

I have the cache disabled in the backend already. Still it's not getting deactivated.

@hakre Can you share your xml code or ask as new question

Run bin/magento module:disable Vendor_ModuleName and then execute bin/magento setup:upgrade

I would prefer to disable the module via terminal

bin/magento module:disable ${MODULE_NAME}

If it says there is no such module, try listing all enabled ones to find yours

bin/magento module:status --enabled
