Navigate to the menu bar and in and click on go here you need to access folder /Library/Extensions After that paste the kext here now open the terminal and copy this command and paste into the terminal to fix and rebuild caches.
sudo chown -R root:wheel /L*/E*; sudo chmod -R 755 /L*/E*; sudo kextcache -i /
it will take some time to complete this process once it completed then Reboot and see if it works. I have tested in my Dell Latitude E 6420 and it working just like working in macOS High Sierra.
