Just kill windows update and windows update medic service.

That kind of defeats the whole purpose of moving from 10 to 11 though. Stopping security updates for 10 would be like 99% of the point, unless somebody has suddenly found a use for DirectStorage...

HDR is kind of screwier in w10. But yeah, I use w10, it is the last windows. Maybe if someday I can fully defang w11 I might upgrade. Or backport some bits from w11 to w10 but no big deal.

You can just stay on Win10 if you aren't gonna do updates anyway. The solution is obviously linux.
