    Robbert van Andel I found the same issue and was able to fix it by updating to the latest version of the SharePoint Power Shell module. It looks like Microsoft Released a new version of the PowerShell module on 4/3. Then things started to break for us on Monday evening.

     

    After I upgraded to the latest version I haven't had an issue again.

     

    EDIT: The version I upgraded to is 16.0.19927.12000.

     

    Hope that works for you.

I am having the same issue for DenyAddAndCustomizePages and I also uninstalled and reinstalled Share Point Online Management Shell. I have version 16.0.20122.12000 but I am still having the same error. I am trying to enable custom script for a Group Site collection. The command works fine for classic sites. Anything I am missing here? Thanks in advance!

    Not sure if this will help, but when you un-install, make sure to reboot afterwards then re-install.  Also the Microsoft Tech had me use the Windows PowerShell instead of using the Windows PowerShell ISE and also running the Windows PowerShell in NON admin mode.

      Thank you for your quick response. Tried the steps you mentioned but still same error. After some more research found references to article saying for group sites not all properties can be changed using the Set-SPOSite command but need to use CSOM. So going to try CSOM.
