Is there a way to launch the offline help from inside Blender, like you can in other apps like Maya? I don’t see anything inside Prefs that allows you to set up a local path for help.
I do not believe you can launch offline help directly from blender. However, you can download the Blender manual as offline HTML pages so you can use the manual offline the same way as you would online. The download link is on the home page:

Thanks… yeah I have the offline docs downloaded. I’ll just have to have them bookmarked in the browser when I need it. Or workstations are in an offline environment.
This can be done with a simple addon. The add-on will launch the html file and add itself to the top menu. You can search for similar add-ons and hack them to your need.
