From the opening menu:

Tools->Plugins, settings tab
Check NetBeans 8.2 Plugin Portal
Switch to Available Plugins tab
Press Check for Newest
Find "The nb-javac Java editing support" entry, check, Install

I installed 12.4 on Ubuntu to make sure I am telling the truth.  I hope it is what you were looking for.

Compiling is not the issue.  Its the indexing, method lookup, syntax checking ect...  If you install 12.4 in an online environment, NetBeans will ask if you want to install nb-javac and then it dose it for you.

I tryed that route and zipped up everything I could find that is NetBeans related, moved it over to the offline network.  Started NetBeans and it asks if I would like to install nb-javac.

To make things worse I cannot find where NetBeans installed the jar files.  All I could find was an xml file that wasn't very helpful.

I apologize if there arr multiple spelling errors as I am sending this from my cell phone.

    Since you’re not running on JDK 8, you may not need to use
    nb-javac at all. Just don’t install it, 12.4 will use javac from
    the JDK.

        It looks like it does not work that way anymore.  The links
        for the nbm files are all broken.  The NetBeans plug-in portal
        does not list them either. The GitHub only has jar files.
