It turns out that I must map a sharepoint on a server with windows server 2016, this server has no office account or anything, when I try to map manually from the file explorer I get the error "the folder you entered does not appear to be valid. please choose another.", the same comes out when mapping it as a drive, also on my personal computer if I could map it without problem, then I have a script with which I map SharePoint but gives me error system 53, also try to map it by CMD commands and gave me error that does not find the link, help me, help!

I need to have the sharepoint from the file explorer because I have a flow that must run a script that takes from the sharepoint and it must be run locally and it is not possible through the browser.

Thanks in advance
