IFL won't boot, Verifying shim SBAT data failed

Trying to run IFL 3.64 from a USB stick using the PC's boot menu, instead of loading IFL I get a black screen with the message "Verifying shim SBAT data failed: Security Policy Violation".

Googling gives several hits including a Bootit UEFI post "Windows update KB5041580 seems to break BootIt UEFI 1.44 installation". Apparently the issue can be bypassed by disabling secure boot in Windows or presumably by rolling back the offending update, neither of which are long term solutions.

Will TB issue an updated version to solve this?

Is this already fixed in the latest version 4.02?

Also 4.02 is a major version number above 3.64 is version 4 a paid update? (I'm not averse to paying as this software is worth it's weight in gold).

Seems v 4.02 does solve this. I will get a paid upgrade.
