The problem is that you're asking that question.

Static builds of Qt don't look for plugins because they can't load plugins. 
The fact tat you're asking about loading of plugins in a static builds and the 
fact that the absence of loadable plugin files has any effect indicates that you 
don't have a static build of Qt.

So please go back to the beginning and check whether you have a static build. 
If you do, there should be no loadable files and the application shouldn't 
search for them.

If you want to keep using a dynamic build, then you need to deploy the plugins 
on all machines and figure out a way to tell the application where they are.
