Also confirmed that the digital signatures tab was missing in my original downloads and present on the downloads on another computer

Did you use the same browser for the download on both computers? If so, do the have the same browser extensions installed?

Do they both run the same antivirus program?

Are they both on the same network?

This might be a browser issue. My original downloads with missing Digital signatures were from Opera. With MS Edge the Digital Signatures are working. Both these on the computer I use. 
What I do not understand is that the downloads from another computer were downloaded on Opera.

Have tried to upgrade Affinity Designer to 1.9.2 as well as new install of latest (and purchased Affinity Photo). Unable to install and get the side-by-side error. Have followed all publicly available troubleshooting including removing and reinstalling all Visual C++ distribtuions to no avail. This is a very frustrating experience. What is the definitive remedy for this issue that is clearly affecting many users

I believe you've solved your problem, using one of the suggested solutions (download to a different computer), based on your other post (see below).

That seems to be the definitive remedy at this point, since clearly there is something causing it on some PCs, and not on others, which makes it outside of Serif's control, I believe. I don't think anyone has identified the definitive cause, though, but it seems like there is some software installed on those PCs that is interfering with the download or a network issue, but it has been demonstrated that the downloads that get that error have been corrupted. And as they consistently work for some users but consistently fail for other users (on some PCs, but not others) and they're all downloading from the same place, it seems like something local or network-related is to blame.
