LogicPro: Is "skip failed plug-ins" no longer an option?

I have been trying and failing to load a project shared by my collaborator. LP keeps looking on his network drive for the plug-ins even though I have them all saved locally on my system. I've seen this before and it would eventually let me skip the plug-in that it couldn't find.

Now (version 11.2.2 on MacBook Pro with M1 Max, running Sequoia 15.6.1) it just repeats the warning over and over and the project never successfully loads.

Questions:

1) isn't there a way that LP could search the local system FIRST for plug-ins? Why does it persist in looking on a network drive that it doesn't have access to when the components are sitting in the default location on the local system?

2) Is there an over-ride to tell LP where to look, or at least to tell it to ignore those plug-ins that it can't find? Did that "ignore failed plug-ins" checkbox get moved or deleted? I can't even find help on it.

Thanks for any thoughts/assistance!
