We cannot switch off the pre-flash as that's a behavior of a flash in TTL mode.
What are your camera and flash settings? We are interested in finding out how a pre-flash ruining your pictures.
Thank you.

To help us better help you, always state the exact firmware version installed on your Cactus device(s), such as: "1.1.013", "FUJ.1.002", "NIK.A.001", "v.103".
You could perhaps use the second V6IIs to trigger a Godox AD360, or similar, via a sync-cable.
You'd just have to make sure that the flash can engage HSS mode manually (like many Godox models do) and live with the fact that there wouldn't be remote power control from the V6IIs on your camera.
You should be able to regain remote power control when using certain native Godox triggers on top of the V6IIs but personally I don't like such trigger stacks.
Or use an RF85 (it's two RF60 on a multi flash mount).
...The pre-flash causes my models to close their eyelids, not very beautiful portraits with closed eyes.
Ah, i see now.
... If i would buy a second flash, it would be a portable with more
Well, the RF60 is a tad more powerful than your Sony F43M GN 56 vs GN 43.
But what to do with the second V6IIs now/then?
remote shutter? oO
Yes, that could be one of the use, as a remote shutter release. Or in the future you might shoot on two Sony bodies? who knows!
