Rendering Geo Plots in Jupyter Notebook/Lab

Hello first post here ---- similar to a couple of older posts i am having trouble getting a geo plot (of any variety) to show on an offline (no internet) system…i dont see any up to date answers and the older responses seem more geared towards Dash as opposed to Jupyter… is there a known work around to this issue that ive missed?

I’m using the following:
windows 10
python = 3.10
jupyterlab = 4.3.5
plotly = 5.9
plotly_geo = 1.0.0

I also transferred the world_110.json and plotly-x.x.min files to my offline computer, although i dont know how/if i can make those work in jupyter

The jupyter cell runs w/o error, just doesnt show any kind of geo plot…all others plot types work great
