If you do not have a central server for WSUS and / or domain controller for the conected policies, the only option is to set the settings on each single machine. The policy does excactly the same, but centralized for all connected computers.
A first protection is to advice windows not to install them automatically. This gives at least some time to inform a few users not to install them. Switching off is also not the best solution because you have even to enable it back manually.
But even this meachnism doesn't really work for Click and Run applications (i.e Office 2019). as they don't use WSUS / Windows Updates. This has additionally to be set for the Office applications.
