After hours of troubleshooting, I got it.
For whatever reason, I'm able to install this file which is a plugin on my machine. So trying to recreate the issue, I iniated an install of the plugin again. But before downloading it, I noted the filepath of the file which is a .cab extension. I pasted that path into a browser and I was able to get the exe file. I exempted the exe file and was able to get the plugin downloaded for the problematic machines.
