Is there a setting to make Windows 10 not automatically reboot?

If you are using the Pro or Enterprise edition, there is a group policy setting that is easy to change. On Home, however, I think the only option is to set updates to notification only (most conveniently with WU Minitool) and then you will have to periodically install them manually which is what I prefer.

edit- change the group policy setting via Registry (should work with Home)

Under settings - Windows Update - Restart Options set it to your preferences and be done with it.
