The calibre-setup.msi file HAS been created in Downloads, but it's only 3Kb in size. I think the "https://download.calibre-ebook.com/64bit" url is being redirected to an actual filename that urllib.request is not following. The urls for the other platforms actually end in file names.
If I'm checking, that's exactly what's happening on Mac, for example. The plugin downloads a renamed file, e.g., calibre-update.dmg, when in reality, from the website, it downloads calibre-9.5.0.dmg.
