Description

## Need to Disable the Automatic Update for the installed JDK and JRE.

We have installed JAVA JDK and JRE which gets Updated automatically updated without showing like there is an update available. We have also checked for the availability of JAVA Updater Service or the Application in the Notification Tray Icon of Windows 11, we did not find any.
Request you to support us on disabling the JDK and JRE.

## Context

Java version:
JDK - OpenJDK11U-jdk_x64_windows_hotspot_11.0.17_8
JDK - OpenJDK11U-jre_x64_windows_hotspot_11.0.17_8

Your operating system and platform:
Windows 11 Pro 64bit

Research direction

No source file, test, or installer entry point is named in the issue. Start by tracing how the Windows JDK and JRE installers handle updates, then determine whether automatic updates are provided by this repository. Done should be a clearly specified and tested way to disable that behavior, if it is in scope.
