## Disabling a group in an experiment

Disabling a group turns off one test group in a multi-group experiment while the other groups keep running. Users assigned to the disabled group start receiving the default experience. Disable a group when it performs poorly or creates a bad user experience.

### What to expect when you disable a group

- Users already assigned to the disabled group begin to receive the default experience.
- Statsig can assign new users to the disabled group, and those users receive the default experience.
- Statsig continues tracking exposures for the disabled group.
- The disabled group doesn't trigger Sample Ratio Mismatch (SRM).
- Statsig continues to calculate experiment results for the disabled group.

> **Info:**
>
> Statsig continues showing the group and logging exposures so that you can verify that user experiences have recovered after you disable the group.

### How to disable a group

- Log into the Statsig console at https://console.statsig.com.
- On the left-hand navigation panel, select **Experiments**.
- Select the experiment where you want to disable a group.
- Click the **...** menu in the top right corner.
- Select **Disable A Group**.
- Select the experiment groups you want to disable, then select **Confirm**.

> **Info:**
>
> Users in any reenabled group may have experienced multiple treatment experiences during the experiment. The metric data collected for the group may reflect these multiple experiences.
