ensete Might be worthwhile trying to move to Linux.
Unpopular opinion perhaps, but I actually really like Windows 10 and finally version 2004 seems fairly easy on the eyes..
I get where you're coming from @ensete and if that's the route you'd like to go then fair enough, but I think most people (myself included) need a simple and reliable solution to their problem. I'm very tech-savvy but realistically I want to use a single OS to do everything I need, in an ultra-stable and simple way.
I personally wouldn't want to perform music on stage or speak at a conference with Windows running inside Linux - I just can't see how it would be stable enough for real-world, high-end application from my past experience of running virtual environments.
ensete You can rest assured Microsoft is NOT going to stop auto updating Windows 10 or pushing out changes without your consent or testing.
It's super simple to stop any updates using this software:

I've not had an update other than ones I've chosen for many years now. 😀
