this happens to me before it keeps updating then when install the update and restart complete nothing happens and then after a while it will download the same update again. What i did is that i go to group policy i disable configure automatic update, defer upgrades and updates, automatic updates detection frequency, allow non-administrator to receive update notification, turn  on recommended updates via automatic update and enable client-side targeting.

Set your network connection to metered and it shouldn't download updates.

Go to network settings (in the Settings app) and make the current connection (wired or wireless) metered.

start + R , msconfig, go to services, then scroll down to windows update and de-select the box. After a restart it should be fixed. 

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
