Problem with netsh command to configure IP

After setting a static IP address with the netsh command, when I try to change it back to DHCP, also with netsh, I get a message that it is already set to DHCP.

When I check the NIC configuration in the GUI, it is set to static, but when I check with netsh int ip show conf, it says DHCP is enabled.

Is this a known issue?
I am hesitant to use netsh to configure static because I can't revert to DHCP with the command.

Oh my...
I have confirmed the same problem with two different environments I have on hand.
The only thing they have in common is that they are cloning from an image using sysprep.

What command are you calling to return an interface to DHCP?

Commands for static configuration
netsh interface ip set address name=ethernet source=static ....

Command to revert to DHCP
netsh interface ip set address name=ethernet source=dhcp

If the nic setting is changed by gui even a little after static setting by command, it can be set to dhcp by command, but if only command is used, the value of dns will disappear, but the setting of ip will remain.
