Have Turned Off Automatic Updates

After September 2018 patch Tuesday, I turned off my automatic updating after hearing some caused more problems than they solved. Of course, now I will not know which patches after that will be deemed "critical". I tried looking that up at Microsoft's Web site, but they do not indicate this. Have I missed anything? Should I leave it turned off?
