call the time(...) function to the the timein seconds since 1/1/1970

There are other functions in the standard library (gmtime?) to convert this to year, month, day, hour minute and seconds.

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.
