What would you like to see?

Hello, I was wondering if we could revert to single user mode.
Right now, I am using multi user mode and I want to deactivate it and switch to single user.

I was also facing the same issue and after debugging, I found only one solution that is change the multi_user_mode value to false in system_settings table of anythingllm.db database and it is working for me.

If someone know any other way please comment.

Correct, you cannot revert - although it is possible manually by deleting the system_settings record and removing the JWT_SECRET and AUTH_TOKEN env vars so that the instance has no authentication so you can start fresh.

We won't be adding a way to do this via the UI since it would result in a ton of data loss if an admin were to execute it on behalf of an entire instance.
