@dblinks Two things control all WordPress caching plugins: define('WP_CACHE', TRUE); in your wp-config.php file and the wp-content/advanced-cache.php file.
When you deactivate Comet Cache, both of those are removed (that is, unless Comet Cache is unable to remove them for some reason). I suggest double-checking that those two things have been removed.

Understood and thanks.
I didn’t dig deeper into why the files are not removed or check permissions, and it’s not my intent to remove comet cache, just to disable it at times when doing a content intense edit to see changes in a non logged browser.
I found that disabling the plugin from the plugin screen works exactly as I want.
thanks!

ahh, ok for security our config files are set what we think is best practice though you could disagree. Owner = readonly – no others rwe
I think that might be the reason the plugin does not remove the define(“WP_CACHE… statement.
@dblinks That would explain it. If Comet Cache can’t update your wp-config.php file then it won’t be able to enable/disable the cache.
