Image creation tool? Don't be ridiculous now after you said so many good things... Automatic updates via single click/CLI call to turn it off is the only solution. You don't need to know about "Windows distributions" to turn off updates, that's ridiculous and insulting. I have script but need to change it from time to time. OOSU10 also does it for now. Some hosts tinkering also...

  Oh, sorry, my bad for the link. It says to set on this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU I already have there NoAutoUpdate = 1 now (looks like ShutUp10 that I use set that, and I get error if I want to update, after restarting). Not sure if I hallucinate or so, but this is so trivial to set that it doesn't explain why entire Internet has a problem. I set this up after initial Windows install as concept of automatic update without your say in it (what and when) is nonsense, but Windows still managed to skip it somehow later... Actually, I checked my notes now, and found 5 different ways to do it since obviously people had problems with "universal solutions": task scheduler, hosts, mettered connection, registry, debloater scripts etc.

    There is only one way to consistently prevent Windows Update from rebooting your machine. You must use regedit to override the process execution for the executable that triggers the reboot. You can find instructions here[0]. This method has been flawless for three years, through multiple feature updates. No longer to my long-running processes get interrupted. It does not disable updates, just makes the reboots be on your schedule. 0: https://lazyadmin.nl/it/how-to-stop-automatic-restart-win-10-after-installing-updates/ https://lazyadmin.nl/it/how-to-stop-automatic-restart-win-10...
