I think you mean 10.12.6... (you wrote 12.10.6).

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

Use the tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

On Clover screen I press F2 then I press F4
In the OSX terminal I launch @black.dragon74's script

I also did some other things yesterday

I choose from Clover Screen a USB OSX volume : It boots and Thumbnail of files on the desktop are here.

Your setup is wrong...
Look at your ioreg and you can see SMBIOS truncation is obvious.
You see 'MacBookPro1' instead of 'MacBookPro14,1'.
It is due to Dell SMBIOS truncation (very common).
Requires config.plist/KernelAndKextPatches/DellSMBIOSPatch=true (you have it set false).

Thanks
Corrected
System info show now correctly the SMBios.
I tried to update CLOVER ➧ it Fails
Same symptoms .... grrr

How are you attempting to update Clover?
Keep in mind the only valid way is with the Clover installer.

Good question
I simply download the clover pkg and I mount the EFI partition and I run the Installer with the regulars Options Checked.
That What I do for my Desktop Hackintosh. But may be It's not the same for Laptop
I'll check
Thanks

You will probably need some of the *.efi in drivers64UEFI...

What is the error?
No need to mount EFI (the installer will do it)
Did you check the installer logs?

Some Progress
I need for some reason to install Microsoft Word. Because the Apple Installer failed, I used Pacifist instead.
It did some magic. After that I could instal other softwares with Apple Installer, Also Update clover ! Updates via AppStore works again.
The Thumbnail Icons are back in the finder. Spotlight Works
All those thing were, in a way, related ....
I still have Jerky audio though .....
Hope sharing that could helps ....
