Meanwhile my windows computer wakes up from sleep in the middle of the night to update and starts a light show in my room.
You can't easily deactivate that behavior.
It's not really my computer, it's Microsoft's computer that they lend me.
You realise you can very easily disable updates and just do them manually when you feel like it?
Or you can shut down the computer when you go to sleep, booting takes less than 30 seconds with a modern computer...
You don't update Windows "when you feel like it", it does when it feels like it. Several times, after delaying the updates so many times because I knew it takes dozens of minutes to apply each time and I didn't want that to happen as I often had to restart my PC or had to let it run in the background, Windows eventually forced me to update the next time I shut down my PC.
