If you chose not to apply updates for your windows 10 you are asking for more problems than you can imagine.

That might be true if you rely solely on Microsoft for your malware protection. Personally, I don’t. They are a major perpetrator of malware as far as I’m concerned!
If you want their updates, you will have to put up with their B/S as well. ‘You pays your money and takes your pick’ as the saying goes! As you will no doubt be aware, having your programs on separate drives is no good if they mess with your registry.
What will you do when they decide they no longer want to support Win 10 - as with Win XP etc? Upgrade to their next crap O.S. and endure even more B/S???

This is NOT how W10 will go forward.
I quote from a 2015 bulletin : "In fact there won't be a Windows 11 at all – just new updates that add extra features to Windows without changing the name. Some of those will come month by month, others will be collected into larger updates that bring multiple features at once."
This means that w10 will always remain W10, but instead it will continually be updated to and for, the latest technology, fight the latest viruses and malwares and such, on an ongoing basis.
By stopping your "updates", AND KEEPING IT OFF, you will eventually end up with a defunct OS, behind the times, all of your own making..

When Terry Myerson was trying to explain why the version of Microsoft's operating system after Windows 8 wasn't called Windows 9, he said the name had to match how different this new release of Windows would be. "We're at an inflection point," he explained. "We're at a point where we carry forward all that's good in Windows and step across into a new way of doing things – a new Windows. Because we're not building an incremental Windows, the new Windows is Windows 10."
Malware in Windows 10? Huh? Never found anything yet.
But, thanks for the rant. I hope you feel better now, & good luck with your transition to either Linux or that deciduous product. (I'm sure there are also many billionaires amongst their directors that also gotta eat!)
I have the metered connection set to ON and what pisses me off is that everytime I get an update it sets it back to OFf without letting me know.
Read the list, below, written by a fellow who likes Linux but who is truthful enough to recognize the reasons why it's a poor choice for desktop computers.
