Hi,
You can permanently hide the Activate/Deactivate button for Entity form by exporting entity ribbon solution and then add the <HideCustomAction .. > node into the ribbondiff
<CustomActions> node you may also refer the sample example below:
Hide Activate Button
<HideCustomAction Location="Mscrm.Form.Account.Activate" HideActionId="HideActionActivatebutton" />
Hide Deactivate Button
<HideCustomAction Location="Mscrm.Form.Account.Deactivate" HideActionId="HideActionDeactivatebutton" />
