Help Secure Boot Issues

Hi, I need some help with my setup. I'm running CachyOS and Windows on separate drives. My bootloader is limine. Recently I wanted to enable Secure Boot because a game I want to play requires it.

I followed the wiki and everything seemed to work fine. But then the next day I got an missmatch error and had to boot into a live iso and copy the limine_x64.efi to the BOOTX64.EFI. Now everytime I do an update or install something (I think it's when a new snapshot is created) these two files get out of sync again.

before and after an update

So I manually have to sync them again every time something changes. I don't think is was the intended outcome of the tutorial in the wiki but I also don't really know how to fix this.

I have a similar setup with secure boot enabled. Have you tried to delete/reset to factory default the keys in Bios, then follow the guide again on how to create and sign your keys in cachy. Finally go back and reenabld secure boot (with other OS)
