Try making a variable for the object instead of finding it so it would me like

JavaScript:

var Object1 : GameObject;

Object1.GetComponent(ScriptName).enabled = true;

c#:

Public GameObject Object1;
    
 Object1.GetComponent<ScriptName>.enabled = true;

don’t forget to assign the object that has the script you want to enable/disable in the inspector

note: not sure if c# will work I use JavaScript

tell me how it went with you

That C# is incorrect. It should be: Object1.GetComponent < ScriptName > ().enabled = true; Also, I think the argument to GetComponent should be a string if you're not using the generic version (though I highly suggest you do), which would confuse the compiler. Not sure about that though.

If you want find gameobject with tag write this

GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("TagName").GetComponent(ScriptName).enabled = false;
