Shared Folders Setup

i'm running Workstation Player 15 in Linux with a Windows 7 guest. I have a shared folder on the host system set up and enabled. However, the guest cannot see it unless I also have a network connection. I prefer to work with the guest offline most of the time. Why do I need to have a network connection in order to see a shared folder on the host? Is there a way for guest to use shared folders on the host without the network connection?
