Hello @ImaMacCan

If you have internet access on the machine, you can use:

elasticsearch-plugin.bat install ingest-attachment

I've tried your command on my system using cmd:

Z:\Downloads\elasticsearch-7.6.2\bin>elasticsearch-plugin.bat install file:///Z:/Downloads/elasticsearch-7.6.2/bin/ingest-attachment-7.6.2.zip

Did you download the file from https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch-plugins/ingest-attachment/ingest-attachment-7.6.2.zip ?

I am behind a corporate proxy that requires authentication, I need to install offline. Thanks.

I re-installed Elasticsearch and succesfully installed the plugin.
