Disabling AVG

Using AVG free 8.5.339
When installing or upgrading other stuff, it usually asks for the current
anti-virus program to be disabled. Assuming I trust the download, is there a
quick, one click kind of way to disable AVG without trawling through all the
settings? (Obviously in such a way that it can be reactivated just as
easily).
