 One way could be to remove it if the user clicks cancel.

 However that leaves the option open for if the user clicks anything else
 (back button, menu item).

 The only way I can think of to mitigate that would be to set a flag
 (option) somewhere and trigger an admin notice, warning of a failed
 plugin/theme update.
