The ‘Terminate’ button is visible if the client has access to the config section of the gateway. You could put a feature request on [ideas.inductiveautomation.com](http://ideas.inductiveautomation.com), though. If you’ve got at least one client open for supervisors, you could use system.util.sendMessage() and system.util.exit() to implement basically the same thing - just have a message handler on each client waiting for a terminate message, and run system.util.exi… A `system.vision.terminate` or something function might be interesting... maybe added to the gateway scope only, though that could get confusing. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/solution-to-prevent-multiple-vision-instances-from-running-on-one-machine/80640)._
