IDK why anyone has automatic updates enabled, precisely because of this ocurring at frustrating times. Can this not be disabeled anymore or something?

Windows updates whether you want it to or not. whether you have auto-update on or not.
This isnt new with windows 11.
I almost got stuck in an airport because windows 10 decided to update, despite being in standby, in my laptop bag.

I only have it in the VM but even there I tried all kinds of things like hacks in the registry and all kinds of services disabled only to discover sometime later that it tried to update.
I just set it read only so that it just can’t do that now, anymore. It’s such a virus…

The user-facing options only allow you to delay updates for up to a month. There is no way to permanently disable automatic updates from there. If you are a power user, there are ways that use things like group policy, registry keys, etc. But you may not have access to those if you are on a work or school computer, as that is managed by your IT team.
