# Activate and Deactivate Users

### Activating and deactivating menu options

![](https://legale.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/1.png)

In the **Users** section, the platform displays two specific buttons in the top action bar: **Activate** and **Deactivate**.
These options allow administrators to quickly enable or disable platform access for selected users. To use these actions, a user must first be selected from the table, and then the desired option can be clicked.

### Viewing activated and deactivated users

The user list includes a **Status** column showing whether each account is **Activated** or **Deactivated**.
Green icons indicate active users, while red icons indicate deactivated users. This visual status helps administrators easily identify which users currently have access to the platform.

### Activating a user confirmation

When the administrator selects a deactivated user and clicks **Activate**, a confirmation window appears.
This popup asks the administrator to confirm whether they are sure they want to activate the selected account. The action is completed by pressing **Yes**, or canceled with **No**.

### Deactivating a user confirmation

Similarly, when an active user is selected and the **Deactivate** button is clicked, a confirmation dialog is displayed.
The platform again asks for confirmation to prevent accidental deactivation. The administrator must confirm the action by clicking **Yes**, or cancel it with **No**.
