From SharePoint connectors (SharePoint folders in particular) are available only for enterprise subscriptions, not for business ones.
Power Query data sources in Excel versions - Excel (microsoft.com)

OP question was why From SharePoint Folder connector is missed. Post you mentioned explains how to work witch such connector assuming it exists. Actually it repeats information from the post link on which gave Riny_van_Eekelen in his answer.
By the way, did you have that connector on your subscription an year ago or it appeared in recent months?
