Create fluid guardring with ic/618.130,but report error when open layout with ic/618.320

The fluid guard ring was created using virtuoso version IC618.130, but when opening the layout with another version IC618.320, an error is reported and the layout area cannot be displayed properly. I have checked some relevant documentation and found that this situation is due to cache not being updated or version incompatibility issues.
Is there a way to solve this situation using scripts without switching to the Virtuoso version?
Or is there any other faster way to solve it?
I tried adding the following environment variables in cshell but it didn't work.
setenv VER_CACHE_DEBUG_MSG 0
setenv FGR_REFVAL_ON_CORRUPT_CACHE 1
setenv FGR_CACHE_AUTO_CLEANUP ON
setenv FGR_CACHE_TIMESTAMP_CHECK OFF

error information below

*Error* _vfoMsg: (VFO-117049): Failed to read the FGR cache for the superMaster 'smic40/PGR/layout' because it has been modified after creating the FGR cache. Update the FGR cache of this superMaster in all design.
