Hi GuoMin,

I don't think the new change can fix this issue(id=2667). We use older edk2 version which don't have 
SynchronizeRuntimeVariableCache().

Thanks
Ming

Hi Ming,

The new posted change https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/topic/75412007#62327 may be helpful for this issue.

Can you add the change in your code and verify it?

Thanks
Guomin
