I have never seen this, so I'm just trying to get what I can from your breadcrumbs. As you said, this gremlin is one I'd like to purge.
It worked Wednesday. It gave the "Failed to download" error on Thursday when I clicked the "run" arrow on the Robot Mail vi's front panel.

We tried Build then Run as Startup: same error.
We tried rebooting both cRIO and development laptop, then running Robot Main: same error.
We powered down and restarted the Driver Station, then running Robot Main: same error.
We ran the LabVIEW update on the development laptop. Same error.

Friday we spent doing other things and didn't have time to chase the problem down further.

Saturday I powered everything up and got the same error when trying to run Robot Main. I then reimaged the cRIO with v19, and could run Robot Main without error immediately afterwards.

If it happens again, is there anything you'd like me to look at on the cRIO? I've never used the cRIO console, so specific directions would be appreciated.
