what specifically is preventing you from doing that?
i have done that in the past, and i can think of two ways...
Unfortunately, this didn't work.

How would you do this?
- map network share to drive letter
net use v: \\server\path /user:username password /persistent:no
rclone lsd v:/
net use v: /delete
- subst network share to drive letter
net use \\server\path /user:username password /persistent:no
subst v: \\server\path
rclone lsd v:/
net use \\server\path /delete
subst /d v:
Neither of these work in Task Scheduler running a batch file with these contents.
subst V: \\Path\Path >C:\Log\Logfile.txt
and
net use V: \\Path\Path /user:Domain\Username password /persistent:no >C:\Log\Logfile.txt
doesn't even make the output log file but run from a bat file in Task Scheduler. The task just sits running.
i created a new task, a network share with a file.
i ran the task as system user, which is never a good idea.
i ran the task as non-system user.
in both cases, the script ran as expected.
echo task start > log.txt
whoami >> log.txt
echo 1 >> log.txt
net use \\100.122.213.46\zork /user:vserver03\zork redacted /persistent:no >> log.txt
net use >> log.txt
echo 2 >> log.txt
subst x: \\100.122.213.46\zork
subst >> log.txt
echo 3 >> log.txt
rclone ls x:/ --log-level=DEBUG --log-file=rclone.txt > x.txt
echo task completed >> log.txt

Ah, okay, I figured out what I was doing wrong. Let me give that a shot and see where we get.

second log, second time with the same error.
maybe, post a debug log that does not have that message?
Okay, so that got me thinking.
I have three tasks running rclone bisync for three different directories, with simultaneous start times. The same issue is happening in all three directories, although not simultaneously. The below thread, though, got me thinking that having all three start simultaneously may mean that the access token is being used by one of the three tasks and not getting refreshed in time for the other tasks.
I've tried staggering my scheduled tasks now. Maybe that'll solve the issue?
Good find! That would also explain this:
2024/09/24 15:50:02 DEBUG : Config file has changed externally - reloading
Let us know 
In other news, I think I just found how to fix the item_name_in_use bug
Alright, we've gone a very long time with no errors, so I think that did it! Thanks everyone for the help.
Awesome! Congrats
