"Failed to open package file ..." when modifying job step on remote server

Question

I have SSIS package setup on a remote SQL Server to run on schedule via SQL Server Agent. It was setup initially by remote desktop-ing to the server and connecting to it via SSMS running on the same machine where SQL Server is running. Package source is
"File System" and absolute path is specified (D:\Folder1\Package1.dtsx). There is just one step in the job - to run SSIS package. Everything works as it should.
Now I want to modify this job - change number of retry on failure attempts. I can successfully connect to this SQL Server instance via SSMS from my developer workstation. I can then go to "Advanced Settings" for this job step and change "Retry attempts"
to some other number. However, when I press "OK" I get this error message:
TITLE: SSIS Execution Properties
Failed to open package file "D:\Folder1\Package1.dtsx" due to error 0x80070003 "The system cannot find the path specified.".  This happens when loading a package and the file cannot be opened or loaded correctly into the XML document. This can
be the result of either providing an incorrect file name was specified when calling LoadPackage or the XML file was specified and has an incorrect format.
 ({105912C7-6345-42B4-99B4-58566291867B})
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Failed to open package file "D:\Folder1\Package1.dtsx" due to error 0x80070003 "The system cannot find the path specified.".  This happens when loading a package and the file cannot be opened or loaded correctly into the XML document. This can

Interestingly enough, in spite of this error message the number of retries is successfully changed.
I understand it happens because SSMS tries to locate package on my local hard drive and the same folder doesn't exist on my development PC. It still doesn't make sense to me. Does SSMS not know I am accessing remote server? How come I don't get any errors
when I just execute this job via SSMS when SSMS runs on my development PC?

Hi, Am facing same issue, but I am trying run SSIS package via C# code, I have given full access to all the folder in which the package is available.
In the below line am getting error,
using Microsoft.SqlServer.DTS.Runtime;
Application app=new Application();
Package package=null;
package=app.LoadPackage("PackageFullPath",null) --error line
Failed to open package file "C:\SSIS\Package.dtsx" due to error 0x800C0006 "The system
cannot locate the object specified.".  This occurs when loading a
package and the file cannot be opened or loaded correctly into the XML document
full access to which account? also trying to run from where? In the same machine where package resides?
