Fix: Microphone Permissions Not Showing Up on Hackintosh (macOS Tahoe/Sonoma)

If you're on a **Hackintosh** and apps like **Brave** or **OBS** won't ask for microphone permissions—leaving your "Privacy & Security" list empty—the system's TCC (Transparency, Consent, and Control) database is likely stuck.

Run these after building tccplus (https://github.com/jslegendre/tccplus):

bash
./tccplus add Microphone com.obsproject.obs-studio
./tccplus add Microphone com.brave.browser
./tccplus add Microphone net.whatsapp.WhatsApp

Then quit and relaunch the apps.

Verify bundle IDs if needed:

bash
osascript -e 'id of app "OBS"'
osascript -e 'id of app "Brave Browser"'
osascript -e 'id of app "WhatsApp"'

To undo:

bash
tccutil reset Microphone
