That is what I do on my W10 Install. Hit that windows update group policy disable button ASAP. No more Microsoft bullshit. They even silently update your drivers - which are probably the worst things ever to update, especially when you chose a stable build and want to stay on it. I had the machine up for like 100 days w/o rebooting before we lost power here. Devs seem to have no clue about reliability and stability. Like they want us all on some perpetual upgrade treadmill while they continue to break shit that was already working just fine.

Maybe if you wanted a stable OS you should be running the LTS version instead.

Well, I think that every SKU of an OS should be able to deliver stability. Especially something ordinary like a few months of uptime.
