For an overview of syncing your files into File Explorer, check out this video:

For automating this via group policy, check out:

The Sync button in Teams is hit or miss. I did the hack to upgrade OneDrive, and this worked for a few days, but now no longer works. Typically, you will need to open in SharePoint, then hit Sync to do this manually, at least until MS fully fixes the Sync in Teams.
