I think the problem is from github’s side, not due to your company policies. However, the version on food4rhino was before this fix so the HBInstaller won’t work.

> Hello All, Thanks for reporting this and I am happy to announce that we have found a solution It seems that earlier versions of [Transport Layer Security (TLS)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security) had some security flaws in them and so Github updated to use the latest version of TLS (version 1.2) when downloading files, as noted in @mostapha 's post. I found a way to make sure that all Ladybug and Honeybee components use the new version of TLS when downloading files in the background and you can see that I have made the changes …

Attached is the newer HBInstaller, should work without having to go extra miles.
