If you're forced to use Windows, you can minimise the amount of disruption from updates by remembering:
It's much easier to plan around them when you know when they're coming.
I don't know if OP says this anywhere, but if it's a company laptop then MAYBE updates are whenever IT feels like it... And you cannot pause updates unless IT feels like offering that to you... AND only for particular updates...
I know you're not trying to be mean IT but sometimes you hurt me
Managed corporate computers give IT departments control over when updates are released to users and installed. They're usually later than the MS schedule to give more time for testing. Good departments will follow some sort of regular predictable schedule, but bad ones can just drop updates randomly.
Windows 11 26H2 is actually a bit better with this anyway… it hangs on to updates that need reboots (instead of installing them straight away), so you only have to do an update-reboot once a month.
I think you can pause updates for longer as well. It might even be indefinitely but I've never bothered to look into it.
Not only this, but Windows as a whole doesn't force you to restart until you hit the 7-day mark after the update was installed(unless you have the idle reboot setting on). So you have a whole seven days after installing your update to restart on your own time. That way it isn't restarting in the middle of your presentation.
