OpenCore version mismatch

[KajtekKajtek]

Hello

During boot and with terminal I see OpenCore version 0.9.1. But your EFI is 0.9.6 based. Tried reset NVRAM from OC and sudo nvram -d 4D1FDA02-38C7-4A6A-9CC6-4BCCA8B30102:opencore-version but it didn't help.

NUC8I3BEH with Sonoma and your EFI
What else can I try???

Thank you for help.

Resetting nvram should take care of that. Very weird. You can try to delete it manually with the nvram command and reboot. Still odd resetting didn't clear that variable. I don't think any recent config changes did anything in the nvram area as well. Deleting it manually should work though.

Strange thing. Nothing helps. I installed new disk and made fresh Sonoma install. No change. Still shows OpenCore 0.9.1 :(

Yeah really. strange. The only thing I could think of is that maybe it boots from another efi partition somehow? I've left a usb stick in once and my nuc booted from that before the internal disk and it took me a while before I realised it was doing that. I've checked on my freshly installed Sonoma and it seems to work ok for me. Using latest release from the repo.

% nvram 4D1FDA02-38C7-4A6A-9CC6-4BCCA8B30102:opencore-version
4D1FDA02-38C7-4A6A-9CC6-4BCCA8B30102:opencore-version	REL-096-2023-10-14

As a sanity check you could delete everything on your efi partition except your config and copy the latest release to there sans the config too. If the OpenCore picker/menu also shows 0.9.1 then fore sure you're booting using an older version.

Clean Sonoma install. Disk GPT formated (APFS). Empty EFI. Copied last EFI from github. Changed only serials and deleted nvmefix.kext because I don't need it - SATA SSD. Still shows ver. 0.9.1 :( Maybe new BIOS ver. 095 crash something :( No hope but thank you for your time and help.

Normally I would suggest pulling the battery then holding the power button for a bit to drain the board completely. But if I recall correctly it's on the other side of the board and I've broken off those antenna connectors and was pretty careful. They are so fragile on the NUCs for some reason. Unless you already got the board in a different case you may want think twice before removing it to pull the battery. But for sure once thats done it should be gone as those variables are kept in volatile storage.

Thank you. I will try.

Done. Battery and drain with power button. Shows OpenCore 0.9.6 now. :):):) Thank you very much for help.
