Now what's the best way to keep Windows from updating for the next two weeks?

Disable automatic updates with group policy

@brb @AlligatorBlizzard that also poses a great security risk since the majority of updated are security-related, even though they also break stuff

For just 2 weeks it's probably fine but good disclaimer
