Can be caused by WSUS not downloading the updates properly and sending you the failed downloads. You may have to uninstall those updates.
Go to services and stop the Automatic Updates service
Go to the C:\WINDOWS\ and delete the SoftwareDistribution folder.
Restart the automatic updates service.
Then in the Run box type
wuauclt.exe /detectnow
To force a check with WSUS.
