Unfortunately, there is (currently) no way to change the template after creation. However, I have used the "create new/Sharegate migration/delete/rename" method often when clients change thier mind about the template. If you do not have Sharegate, you can try the free Microsoft migration tool, which should allow you to copy the content and preserve metadata.
Hi Don Kirkham
The problem is that we are talking about a large organization and I know that if you ask the IT department to do it, they will raise 1001 problems 🙂

webdevptg I understand, as I work for a large organization. Sharegate has a PowerShell library, so I'm sure this could all be scripted, but IT departments (or Cybersecurity in my case) that are difficult to work with is a whole different issue. In that case, you'll have to wait for Microsoft to provide a solution that IT won't question.
