From the error you are receiving, you do not have the Oracle client software
installed on your development computer.

What is this oracle client software and where to have it?
Do i need the oracle a software to use ado.net 2.0?

Yes, if you want to operate on an oracle database using ado.net 2.0 (or any
other version) you need an oracle database (on a server) and the oracle
client software on your workstation. Good luck

Aside from installing oracle clients to ODBC being a pain, I would like to consider other ways to connect. Has anyone had experiences with...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
