You can, in Windows, boot into a no network safe mode and set various registry and group policies to stop Windows updates.

If you're particularly frisky, there are alternatives to the WSUS, Windows Server Update Service you could deploy on your local network.

It's a lot of work, though.

Exactly. I have tried them all before and it is a lot of work and that's why I opted for this one click solution. Sure, it's not open source, but I've been using it for years, it's never done something malicious. I've also done some RCE on it, and I came to the conclusion that this thing is most probably legit and has no malicious intents.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
