In VisualGDB using the managed component LVGL, I cannot make unless my computer is connected to the internet

Question

In VisualGDB using the managed component LVGL, I cannot make unless my computer is connected to the internet. I do not want any of my code to change based on outside dependencies, so my code must be able to compile completely offline.

If the computer is offline I get the error "ERROR: Cannot establish a connection to the component registry. Are you connected to the internet?"

Here is a FAILED build log:
