StopWinUpdates - is app to enable or disable Windows and Store Automatic Updates.StopWinUpdates is portable, but it acts and looks like an installer which we found confusing. Double-click on the executable and choose your options. By default, if you want to disable Windows Update, that's checked by default. You will see prompts, again, that makes it appear the program is installing, but it's just applying your changes.
