I think there are ways to install the Windows Store, but it isn't there by default.

You may know this, and we agree it would be better if there was a GUI option, but to disable automatic updates just save this as a .reg file and run it:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU] "NoAutoUpdate"=dword:00000001
