I think the last time when the system was shutdown it was selected to install the latest updates and was switched off before it did, hence it is continuing to install by connecting to the internet. - It might take time depending upon your internet speed. - Try to disconnect the computer form the internet if it has any, and then try to boot it in safe or normal mode. - Try to stop the update from being installed in the system tray and shut down the system successfully. - Hope this will help.
