@anchises , did you find an answer to this yet?
With Woo 4, it seems you have to manually trigger the importing of historical order data. So if, you install this before updating, then I do not think the data will be imported.

@anchises Disabling the WooCommerce Admin will not stop the Action Scheduler from running in WooCommerce (as mentioned here).
If you have already upgraded Wo to 4.0, you have to manually delete these tables from your database:
wp_wc_admin_notes
wp_wc_admin_note_actions
wp_wc_category_lookup
wp_wc_customer_lookup
wp_wc_order_coupon_lookup
wp_wc_order_product_lookup
wp_wc_order_stats
wp_wc_order_tax_lookup

Remember about backup.
Well, whether Action Scheduler is running or not wasn’t exactly my question.
Good news: I installed this plugin before updating to WC 4. This has prevented the creation of tens of thousands of scheduled tasks, which seem to be related to the import of historical data.
Using the manual method via the “import historical data” button in WC 4 settings doesn’t seem to reliably prevent this behaviour.
Action scheduler and WP-Cron are working as they should (just without the massive amount of tasks).
