The fact that pressing spacebar during boot can accidentally upgrade your OS tells you everything about Microsoft’s current priorities.
I accidentally “upgraded” a test machine by hitting Enter during a BIOS update prompt. The machine rebooted into Windows 11 setup, which then took 45 minutes and required a Microsoft account (or knowledge of the OOBE\BYPASSNRO trick).

If you want to block the upgrade permanently:
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate" /v TargetReleaseVersion /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate" /v TargetReleaseVersionInfo /t REG_SZ /d "22H2" /fOr just install Linux and never worry about it again.
