Use FAT32 for sharing.
Or install Apple bootcamp HFS drivers for readonly access to HFS+J volumes within Windows.

thanks @RehabMan

Getting fan readings requires reverse engineering of ACPI and writing special code to interface with FakeSMC_ACPISensors.kext. The required code is specific to each computer.

Refer to the ProBook repo for examples...

It sounds like yours is not written correctly (15643 rpm seems rather unbelievable).

First of all, you should uninstall the kext and manually load it until you get it working. Read here, post #2:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/wip-voodooi2c-i2c-trackpad-limited-support.204227/#post-1344206

After you uninstall it, you'll be able to boot your computer.

DSDT patching:
You have an error compiling your DSDT, you cannot proceed until you resolve it.
I found you can remove this line from your DSDT, and it would work:

External (BNUM, UnknownObj)    // (from opcode)

I am not sure about that, maybe @RehabMan could confirm it's OK.

Then, edit your I2C1 scope (~line 15273 in your patched DSDT.dsl) from this:

Scope (_SB.PCI0)
{
   Device (I2C1)
   {
       Name (LINK, "\\_SB.PCI0.I2C1")
       Method (_PSC, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PSC: Power State Current
       {
           Return (GETD (SB11))
       }

       Method (_PS0, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PS0: Power State 0
       {
           LPD0 (SB11)
       }

       Method (_PS3, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PS3: Power State 3
       {
           LPD3 (SB11)
       }

       If (LNotEqual (SMD1, 0x02))
       {
           Name (_HID, "INT3443")  // _HID: Hardware ID
           Method (_HRV, 0, NotSerialized)  // _HRV: Hardware Revision
           {
               Return (LHRV (SB11))
           }

           Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)  // _CRS: Current Resource Settings
           {
               Return (LCRS (SMD1, SB01, SIR1))
           }

           Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)  // _STA: Status
           {
               Return (LSTA (SMD1))
           }
       }

       If (LEqual (SMD1, 0x02))
       {
           Name (_ADR, 0x00150001)  // _ADR: Address
           Method (_DSM, 4, Serialized)  // _DSM: Device-Specific Method
           {
               If (PCIC (Arg0))
               {
                   Return (PCID (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3))
               }

               Return (Buffer (One)
               {
                   0x00                                        
               })
           }
       }
   }
}

To this:

    Scope (_SB.PCI0)
    {
        Device (I2C1)
        {
            Name (LINK, "\\_SB.PCI0.I2C1")
            Name (_HID, "INT3443")  // _HID: Hardware ID
            Method (_HRV, 0, NotSerialized)  // _HRV: Hardware Revision
            {
                Return (LHRV (SB11))
            }
            Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)  // _CRS: Current Resource Settings
            {
                Return (LCRS (SMD1, SB01, SIR1))
            }
            Method (_PSC, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PSC: Power State Current
            {
                GETD (SB11)
            }
            Method (_PS0, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PS0: Power State 0
            {
                LPD0 (SB11)
            }
            Method (_PS3, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PS3: Power State 3
            {
                LPD3 (SB11)
            }
            Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)  // _STA: Status
            {
                Return (LSTA (SMD1))
            }
            Name (_ADR, 0x00150001)  // _ADR: Address
            Method (_DSM, 4, Serialized)  // _DSM: Device-Specific Method
            {
                If (PCIC (Arg0))
                {
                    Return (PCID (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3))
                }
                Return (Zero)
            }
        }
    }

Then, add an OS patch to your DSDT, I would say Windows 10 is a good fit.
Change this:

If (_OSI ("Windows 2015"))
{
    Store (0x07DF, OSYS)
}

To this:

If(LOr(_OSI("Darwin"),_OSI("Windows 2015")))
{
    Store (0x07DF, OSYS)
}

Look how to manually load the kext as described in the link I gave you, and try that.
If it's still not working, attach the DSDT (make sure you first move it to CLOVER/acpi/patched, and boot with it) and a copy of IOReg.

Hello, there is also has a "BNUM, 8" and I Do not know it is, I remove it. @RehabMan could solve this problem?

It is an iasl bug. Remove the extraneous 'External(BNUM,...' line.
