I am trying to enable GEOIP COUNTRY BLOCKING to block everything outside USA.

All of your documentation refers to some "GeoIP Plugin" that we must install and enable, that does not come with Admin Tools.

And nothing in any of your documentation says where to actually download this plugin. Nor does the search function on any of your site pull up anything even remotely related to that.

So........... where is this magical plugin supposed to be downloaded from.

That's a feature which was discontinued in 2019. Follow the link I provided to understand why. There is no mention of it anywhere in our current documentation.
