For ex. for Windows 64 bit zip the download endpoint is : https://update.code.visualstudio.com/{version}/win32-x64-archive/stable

You should disable auto update (as mentioned by Gregory in the comment) to prevent it from auto updating itself later upon restart. To do this, go to Preferences, Settings and then search for 'update'. Set it to 'none' as shown below:
