How did I find it so easy to set up Windows 10 Home edition to only "tell" me about updates, and no forced reboots. I didn't use any add-ons.
Just set 'active hours', turn off everything under 'Advanced', and if you really want to not do any updates for a while, you can select a date a date 35 days in the future to restart updates.
Three very simple things built into the update tool.
If you are on a corporate machine, they may limit what you can block based on their internal rules, but that is an IT problem, not Microsoft.
Windows 10 never updates or reboots during my active hours.
I always defer updates to a long time out, then manually update at a point where I want to. Problem solved.
