I am using an Asus X570-I Gaming motherboard with Secure Boot disabled. I am able to load the original modGRUBShell.efi but cannot load setup_var.efi when booting to FAT32 USB drive.

Is there any info you can provide about "not able to load"? e.g. the error message. Please note that setup_var.efi abandoned the interactive usage, and use an argument-based method.

Hi, possibly, I just don't know how to use the new tool. I select boot to USB drive in BIOS and screen flashes black for a second and just returns back to BIOS. I put the .efi file into efi/boot root folder and also tried changing the name to bootx64.efi.
