Mapping a SharePoint site Documents to windows file explorer
I am wanting to map my windows file explorer to a SharePoint site document. I tried hitting the "Sync" button on the SharePoint site with no success. Then tried to "add shortcut to OneDrive", and that worked, but it only gave me half of the folders in the documents section. For reference, this SharePoint site is associated with a MS Teams page containing 4 Channels. I want to be able to access the files in all 4 channels via file explorer. I am the owner of the Teams page and all 4 channels. 2 of the Channels are usable to all members in the Team and the other two are only accessible for 2 members of the Team, one of which is me. Does anybody know how to make these files in this Teams page/SharePoint site accessible in my File Explorer?
Thank you all for any info you can provide!

- Thanks for your response.
I never received an error message. When I select sync in SharePoint, I receive a pop-up telling me my files are syncing and that if there is no response, I should install the latest version of OneDrive. I have never received a response nor do I see my files in file explorer. SO I tried downloading the latest version of OneDrive and my PC tells me I already have the latest version of OneDrive.
P.S. I unfortunately am not able to open your article link as my company's access policy blocks it when I attempt to open it.
