I have two custom document sets, "Project" and "Quote", which appear to be stuck in the classic view. Both document sets exist on separate document libraries. Both document libraries are configured to use the modern view, but both of those document sets will open to a welcome page. My goal is to stop using the Welcome Page for both document sets, and have the document sets instead open to the modern view of the document listing when clicked on.
I have made sure that the issue with not with the document library. I added an existing, custom document set in to the same document library, and this document set did not open to the welcome page.
If I add "Project" or "Quote" to a brand new document library, the document set objects still open to the welcome page. How can I update the document sets in order for them to stop opening to the welcome page.

Hello @btombari
when i open the document set in the classic view, there will be open the classic welcome page.
In my case, when opens the welcome page in classic, i have a "exit classic experience" in the left side navigation. When i click this, on the next time the document set open the the "classic" form, but not the welcome page.

We unfortunately do not have the "exit classic experience" button in our document set welcome pages.

Hello @btombari
have you customized your DocSet homepage? When yes, delete the customizing, when it's possible.
Here are more information about to switch modern/classic:

From what I can see, it doesn't look like we have any customizations made to the document set welcome page. When I navigate to the "Customize welcome page" area for this document set, it looks like the generic unchanged welcome page.
Is there somewhere else or some other way that I can use to determine if there is a customization on the document set welcome page?

Hello @btombari
go to the edit mode and you can see differences to your new document set.
My edit mode in a ootb document set homepage looks like this:
Other: Is the "exit to classic mode" deactivated?

Hello @btombari
I am not aware of this. You can try it in SharePoint Designer, but be careful, you can also break a lot there.

@btombari I've found an easy way to reset the document home page.
In the ContentTypes section of the site collection, look for "Document Set" default CT.
I've just tested and It works!
