Hello! I know there are similar posts about this online, but none of them seem to work for me.
I just updated my system and ever since then, my computer will restart whenever I click shutdown.
I have tried using variations with and without using EmuVariableUefi and OsxAptioFix3DRV (intstalled from clover configurator)
Whenever I add or remove those I can't boot into Mac.
I have:
Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro Wifi
Intel 9900K
Gigabyte 5700XT
32GB Corsair Vengeance RGB RAM
1TB Samsung 980 Pro M.2

Currently my BIOS settings are:
Other OS
Disable CSM
Disable Secure Boot
SATA mode Selection - AHCI
Disable CFG Lock
Disable VT-D
Enable XHCI Hand-off
Disable Legacy USB Support

I have also attached a copy of my EFI for reference
Thank you ahead of time!

Please read and comply with the rules, in particular the one regarding profiles.
Link to profile - Just three items - Motherboard (or prebuilt system), Processor (CPU) and Graphics.

Enable FixShutdown.

You have some pointless kexts.
NullCPUPowerManagement.kext defeats power management.

Do you really have four different Ethernet controllers ?

XHCI-x99-series-injector.kext, XHCI-200-Series_Injector.kext and XHCI-300-Series_Injector.kext are superseded by XHCI-unsupported.kext - (Click download repository).

iMac14,2 is incorrect for your hardware.

Enabling Debug in your config.plist will affect your boot time :

Thank you! I forgot to update my specs
I enabled Fix Shutdown, removed those highlighted kexts and added the XHCI-unsupported.kext (no I don't have 4 ethernet controllers), but unfortunately that did not fix the problem.
Would you know the best SMBIOS for my configuration?
 
I have changed my SMBIOS, but still have my problem. Is there anything else I can try?

With your hardware the recommended option is to use EmuVariableUefi.efi but you say that you cannot do that.
No more ideas.
