Hi - are you asking (in effect) how to ignore the warning and download the file in any case ?
I'm not sure why the Robotics side is apparently not letting choose a particular button here; but I would just caution against over-ruling this warning - the warning is (correctly and helpfully) preventing you from downloading a file from an untrusted website; which is a good thing to have in general.
You would be probably better installing a correct (CA-Signed) certificate (on the https server itself); or else if this an internal website running https ; then at least importing the Trusted Certificate into your Browser's Trust Store to avoid the message altogether.

I'm not sure I understand your issue. Please elaborate on what is not working. Is the PerformClick method not working on the button? Is the button matched at the time?

When clicking these type of pop-ups, you often need to do so from the created event of the form. If you try to wait for the pop-up in your execution thread it usually doesn't work. You can use the Signal component to wait in your main thread until your event thread has closed the pop-up.
