They must not want to answer.

can you help me figure out how to run the software offline? I have had ZERO luck getting info
After you load MSFS2020 go to Options, General, Data and set the Data Online to off save changes and you should be able to work off line.
You will have to have your backed up cache downloaded onto a HDD on your PC for the area that you want to fly.
Hope that helps you.
