Please insert disk when Starting MFS2020

I purchased the digital premium version of MSFS 2020 from the Microsoft store… We recently had a power outage but have a whole house generator for power. So since the internet and cable was down for the entire day, I decided to spend some time on the sim. Every time I tried to access the program, it told me to insert the start disc. After the internet was restored, this issue went away. So, am I understanding this correctly from what has been posted…In order to utilize the sim, I am going to have to have an internet connection? If that is the case I call BS to Microsoft. For the price that one pays for the software, you should be able to play on line or off. Plus their promotion for the software is misleading for I could not find any notification that the software cannot be utilized off line. Hmmm…might have to contact my state’s Attorney General Consumer Protection Division on this one…just saying
