    The idea to regularly update "Active Hours", so that Windows can never update, implemented as a simple script https://github.com/marcosbozzani/Win10ActiveHours still works for me to this day.

    > Perhaps the answer is as simple as "there's a setting buried somewhere that all technically-literate Windows users change"

    With all the editions and versions of Windows 10, there doesn't appear to be a single definitive answer to that.

    I for one settled on https://github.com/marcosbozzani/Win10ActiveHours , which prevents reboots by scheduling a task to update Windows' own "Active Hours" twice a day.
