So, you want to download a previous version of a mod, but it has been archived or a file you wanted have been archived. Worry not. I will go through the process and explain (with pictures) exactly how you can download archived files. This guide works exactly the same for Fallout 4 mods and every other archived mods on this site, I would presume. I have only tested it for fallout 4 and Skyrim. For this guide I'm going to use Universal (SKSE) Rim Lighting Fix since it's convenient, and it already has an archived file. First go to the files section, right-click on mod manager download or manual download, then click on open link in a new tab (or something similar). Your page will then look like this.
copy the text in your search bar, it's very important since you are going to use it later. Open a new tab and paste it in the search bar of that tab.
Your page should look something like this now. Write data-id in the highlighted field and press enter. Press enter until you see this long line. On the long line you can see the numbers you will copy, file name and version. The version of this file is 1.0.0. If you are ever unsure if you have found the right file, you can look at the version number.
copy the numbers in the highlighted area. The ones for this mod is, 500740. Only copy the numbers, not the other symbols.
Right click anywhere on the page (you can just click where the red dot is) and choose to inspect the page. Make sure to read the Firefox part too, it has some info not written for this part.
write data-id in the search field and click enter. You can drag the inspect window to make it bigger if you have trouble seeing the long highlighted line. Just start dragging where the arrow points. Scroll up to the last picture in the Firefox part.
If you have questions, just ask. I can't guarantee I can help, though. I just learned how to do this today.
