I think that happened when I tried to open the USBInjectAll.kext the other day and used Kext Utility.
delete that program Kext Utility
no need for it

out of interest, in terminal:
Code:
sudo kextcache -i /

and copy and paste the results here
 
You need to 'Clear' and 'Refresh' the Hackintool USB window, to get rid of the duplicate ports (SS03). It should also remove the EH01 and EH02 ports/hubs if the SSDT-EHCx_OFF.aml is working correctly.

The Clear and Refresh icons are highlighted in the screenshot below.

View attachment 522515 Cyan rectangle highlighting Clear & Refresh icons.

Repost a screenshot of the USB window after the Refresh.

This is what happened when I cleared and refreshed:

Kext Utility deleted.

I wrote that in the Terminal and got this:

KernelCache ID: 3E201963CE900F138EE18CDBB501AD8E
 
That Hackintool USB window looks correct. It is showing all the possible USB ports in your system.

Now you need to identify each port, first using a USB2 pen drive.
Then do it again using a USB3 pen drive.
 
Checked again with the USB3 hub:

Back ports 5 and 6 (USB3) only work as USB2. Back port 8 (USB2) doesn´t work at all.

Even if I change the connector type (column), this disappears when I restart, but the comment remains.

OK, so you have 15 ports identified/active in that screenshot, which matches with Apple's 15 port limit. I would recommend the following:
  • Delete these ports - HS06, HS07, HS08, SS03 and SS04, they are not used. Red line through ports.
  • Change the Connector type for ports HS01, HS02, HS03 and HS04 from USB2 to USB3, highlighted in Cyan
  • Change the Connector type for Ports HS09 and HS10 to USB3, highlighted in Red
Use the drop down arrow icon to access the different connector types, highlighted in Yellow box.

Then export the configuration from Hackintool. Highlighted in Blue box.

Now.
  1. Add the USBPorts.kext that is generated by Hackintool to your /CLOVER/kexts/Other folder.
  2. Remove the USBInjectAll.kext from your /CLOVER/kexts/Other folder.
  3. Disable or remove the Raise USB port limit patches from your config.plist (all of them).
  4. Reboot your system so it uses the new USBPorts.kext.
 
  • Change the Connector type for ports HS01, HS02, HS03 and HS04 from USB2 to USB3, highlighted in Cyan
  • Change the Connector type for Ports HS09 and HS10 to USB3, highlighted in Red

Ok, I manually changed those so I´ll leave them as USB3 connector.

I exported and Hackintool generated several files, should I do anything with the others?

Done!
 
I made a mistake in my last post.

Ports HS09 and HS10 need to be set as Internal not USB3.

So you need to change these two ports and export a new USBPorts.kext.
 
Changed.

For now it´s working, thanks everyone, you´re f***ing great!!!

I noticed something, this C6 is enabled when I boot and look into Clover options, but when I go to the config.plist it isn´t? Is it ok? Can I do anything else to optimize the computer?
