Forced OS Updates Suck...

Earlier today, I wanted to do some gaming with friends. Satisfactory would crash if I tried to connect with my mate's machine when they hosted, and I had to look up the issue. The stupid part? It was caused by Windows Updates that I didn't even know had been installed.
At this point, my brain can't help tell me that the security vulnerabilities are more acceptable than the updates that constantly and consistently interrupt my workflow and productivity. On the other hand, the security updates are doing their job, because an unusable computer is technically more secure than a working one.
Still... If not for needing Windows 10/11 to run newer games, I'd be running Vista or 7 at this point. Updates and vulns be damned.
