Quick update…
I’ve been searching and found this related support ticket:

On Q3 from the above link, the answer from Olga suggests it may be cache related. I use Cloudflare CDN and have already cleared the Cloudflare and browser cache. Maybe XStore V8 has introduced some sort of additional cache? I’m seeing something called “Files Generator” in v8, which I did not notice before. Is this maybe causing an issue?
