  8. To disable a specific warning, you can also use the #pragma warning directive in your code. For example, to disable warning C4996, you can add the following line before the code that triggers the warning: #pragma warning(disable : 4996) Make sure to re-enable the warning after the code block where it is disabled by adding the following line: #pragma warning(default : 4996)
