Missing Metadata in Volume Alignment Tools Output (cryoSPARC v4.5.3)

Yes - I believe this is the same issue as here:

Volume alignment tools version compatibility issue

Hi, Following on from here: What additional information can I provide to troubleshoot this @rposert? all I have done is taken an old VAT job, cloned it and ran it, and the outputs do not contain CTF slots. Incidentally, if I create a fresh VAT job, but reconnect the same inputs as in the previous problematic case, it does generate the CTF slot correctly - so perhaps it is an issue that specifically pertains to cloning and modifying old VAT jobs? Cheers Oli

What I observed was that if you make a new job in 4.6.2 it correctly generates the metadata - but if you clone a job from before the upgrade, it does not. Is this what you observe?
