Issue Installing Old versions of packages

Windows 10, R v4.2.2
I am trying to install an old version of wdman in order to hopefully resolve an issue that I am having with Rselenium. I have tried updating all dependencies and am still not able to download the older version. I have tried several different methods of installation:

  1. remotes::install_version("wdman",version="0.2.5",repos="http://cran.us.r-project.org")

Downloading package from url: http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/wdman/wdman_0.2.5.tar.gz Installing package into ‘C:/Users/sck11/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.2’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning message: In i.p(...) : installation of package ‘C:/Users/sck11/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpcdxGRe/remotes458832aa4e6c/wdman’ had non-zero exit status

  1. install.packages("C:/Users/sck11/Downloads/wdman_0.2.2.tar",repos=NULL,type="source")

Installing package into ‘C:/Users/sck11/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.2’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning in install.packages : installation of package ‘C:/Users/sck11/Downloads/wdman_0.2.2.tar’ had non-zero exit status

  1. devtools::install_version("wdman", version = "0.2.5", repos = "http://cran.us.r-project.org")

Downloading package from url: http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/wdman/wdman_0.2.5.tar.gz Installing package into ‘C:/Users/sck11/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.2’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning message: In i.p(...) : installation of package ‘C:/Users/sck11/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpcdxGRe/remotes458852c94c21/wdman’ had non-zero exit status

The current version of wdman installs correctly. I tried deleting wdman completely and installing an older version but this has not worked either, with the following output:

I have tried reverting to old versions of other packages as well and receive the same errors. Any help is greatly appreciated!
