The client is experiencing issues with WooCommerce product variations not syncing correctly between different language versions of their site, even after installing the WPML Non-Persistent Cache as previously advised.

It appears that the translations may have been damaged, and updating the variations can rectify this problem. If you're experiencing this issue, try the following steps:
1. Go to the original product.
2. Edit each variation.
3. Save the changes.

My apologies, but this is a very odd issue and kind of rare case.

WORKAROUND: Go to the original product, edit each variation, and save it again, and it will solve the issue.

Issue fixed:
hidden link

It looks like for some reason the translations got damaged on the site, and only updating and saving the variations on the original products can solve the issue.

This means, the site might have had a bug which is no longer exists, as I can not replicate the issue on a new product or when creating a new translation.

Example for a new working product:
