Read USB guide, post #1, "Problem Reporting".

huh, I am actually saying that I have no problem; I didn't install this patch as it was issued after I installed macOS and every port works as it should
The only doubt I have is the following:if I don't apply the patch, could I face an issue wth future updates?

OK, but you were the one that wrote "I am still struggling on this one.".

No one can predict the future.

It is possible your ports are not actually working correctly, but you didn't test them properly so are unaware of it.

If you want a check, read USB guide, post #1, "Problem Reporting".

Not sure what you mean by "these USB changes".

Your problem is your system is matching against the port injector for iMac14,2.

You need to make sure your DSDT (via Clover patches or manual patching) uses EH01/EH02/XHC, not EHC1/EHC2/XHC1.

The DSDT patch I made was via PJLAMs "all in one" DSDT patch for my board. I would assume those changes are in there, but will confirm this evening.

You know what they say about "assume"...

The Z170 chipset is 100-series. Keep in mind the port limit patch is only for temporary use (port discovery). You use it only to discover which ports need to be in your custom SSDT for USBInjectAll.kext.

- 'Ass' - that's 'U' - not - 'ME' - haven't heard that one in years Rehab.

Happy to report after FakePCIID and XHCIMux, all is well with my USB ports. Thank you for pointing me to that thread. Had absolutely nothing to do with Sierra.

Best regards.

Works with Asus Z97 Pro.
Thanks RehabMan.
