Is it always the exact same update that's offered? Have you tried resetting your Windows Update yet?

This could be because of your "Windows Update" settings. If it is configured to run frequently (daily), then the available updates downloaded in the temp location and will get installed when you shutting down your machine.
Configure the "Windows Update" settings as per your convenient time window and ensure your other processes not delayed because of frequent updates.
Go to Control Panel > Windows Update > Change Settings > now, change your selection from the drop down box.
