How do I permanently disable automatic Windows 10 Updates?

Today I before I left for work, I had several tabs in two different programs open, with unsaved work that I hadn't finished yet. I closed my laptop to put it into sleep mode, came back 6 hours later, and Windows had gracefully updated against my will and deleted a lot of stuff I had been working on and was still toying with. This is at LEAST the third time it has happened, without asking permission or notifying me that it would update while I was away, and what pissed me off even more is that it updated while I had programs running with unsaved work. At least 3-4 hours of what I had been experimenting with is gone permanently.

I am going to be as clear as I can here: I do not want to pause windows updates. I do not want to be asked if I want a windows update. I do not want windows updating at all. I am happy with my computer's operating system and half the time the new features are unnoticed by me and the other half that I do notice are either useless or negative. I DO NOT WANT any windows updates AT ALL. How do I permanently disable updates on my computer? And don't give me BS about possible compromises in security, if it's important I'll hear about it and install that update myself, when it won't cost me several hours of my time.

TLDR: Windows updated without permission while I was away, deleted hours of unsaved work, and I want to permanently disable automatic updates on my computer.
