Is there anyway to permanently stop windows from updating? I tried few methods off YT but updates do not stop.

(No, don't recommend me Linux. I have tried it(Mint and Manjaro) and it is way out of my skillset)

Everything else people commonly suggest online does not work.

Woah, thanks for dropping the link. I did disable w10 update by modifying registry for each services which time consuming.
