Turning off auto updates on Steam is pretty easy! Just go to your Steam Library, right-click the game you want to stop auto-updating, select 'Properties,' then head to the 'Updates' tab. There, you'll find a dropdown menu where you can choose 'Only update this game when I launch it.' Boom, no more surprise updates eating into your precious gaming time.
