How to quickly disable SmartActions feature?

Does anyone have any advice on how to quickly disable the entire K2 SmartActions feature, other than by going through K2 Setup Manager and reconfiguring K2?
In a customer's environment, this procedure using K2 Setup Manager and the Reconfigure option takes around 70 minutes and we don't want to wait that long to try it out.
I believe there is an option somewhere in some *.config file that is easy to change and just restart the K2 Server service after the change.
Anyone know?

Thanks, Pavel

  1. Create a backup of K2HostServer.exe.config
  2. Edit K2HostServer.exe.config
  3. Look for this line:

    <system self="K2:DENALLIXK2Service" enableListeners="true" allowAmbiguity="true" />

  4. Change enableListeners to "false"
  5. Save the changes
  6. Restart K2 service
