Only if you've still got automatic updates still on. I always shot the Windows Update service in the head and only turned it on when I actually need it. Also, I'm transitioning some of my machines to Linux Mint on top of that. Third day of it on this laptop, and I'm loving it.

If you're really dedicated, run a local WSUS server, so you get fine control over your patching. A small VM is perfectly adequate.
