Comment (by hmabpera):

 Thanks for getting back to me.

 I am not too familiar with php code but I can do this.
 Where in the config file should I put this?
 There are different sections:
 /**
  * The base configurations of the WordPress.
  *
  * This file has the following configurations: MySQL settings, Table
 Prefix,
  * Secret Keys, WordPress Language, and ABSPATH. You can find more
 information
  * by visiting {@link http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php
 Editing
  * wp-config.php} Codex page. You can get the MySQL settings from your web
 host.
  *
  * This file is used by the wp-config.php creation script during the
  * installation. You don't have to use the web site, you can just copy
 this file
  * to "wp-config.php" and fill in the values.
  *
  * @package WordPress
  */

 > @hmabpera first add `define( 'AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED', true );` to
 your `wp-config.php` and then downgrade to WordPress 4.8 again. It won't
 automatically upgrade again until you remove that constant.
