-#### Why is Recording Indicator Utility guiding me to adjust my security settings?
-To configure the recording indicator, Recording Indicator Utility needs to modify two system components, [WindowServer](https://setapp.com/how-to/windowserver-mac) and [Control Center](https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/control-center-mchl50f94f8f). Both components are protected by [System Integrity Protection](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204899) and [covered by the seal of the signed system volume](https://support.apple.com/guide/security/signed-system-volume-security-secd698747c9/web).

 #### Is it easier for my Mac to be attacked after adjusting security settings?
-Because very few Mac users turn off System Integrity Protection or allow booting from non-sealed system snapshots, there’s little incentive or payoff for attackers to target these configurations.

-#### Why is Recording Indicator Utility guiding me to turn off FileVault?
-[When FileVault is on, macOS doesn’t permit booting from non-sealed system snapshots](https://support.apple.com/guide/security/signed-system-volume-security-secd698747c9/web#sec32d46902a), therefore you need to [turn off FileVault first](https://support.apple.com/HT204837#turnoff).

 #### Can someone use Recording Indicator Utility to monitor me without my knowledge?
 No. Your admin password is required before Recording Indicator Utility can make any changes. Recording Indicator Utility is designed to support professionals who [run live events](https://cdm.link/2021/12/apple-added-an-orange-dot-thats-a-showstopper-for-live-visuals-and-it-needs-a-fix/), [record screencasts](https://telestreamforum.forumbee.com/t/x2hgw5f/orange-dot-on-imac-screen-when-screenflow-is-recording), or use a [system-wide volume equalizer](https://www.globaldelight.com/faq/boom3dmac).
 
-#### Why is Recording Indicator Utility asking me to access the microphone?
-The microphone recording indicator only updates when you pause an existing audio recording or start a new audio recording. For changes to the recording indicator to immediately take effect, Recording Indicator Utility requests access to the microphone to make a zero (0) second long audio recording. 
-
-The temporary recording is only used to refresh the microphone recording indicator and will be automatically discarded by macOS.

 #### How does Recording Indicator Utility differ from undot and YellowDot?
-Recording Indicator Utility supports the latest version of [macOS Monterey](https://support.apple.com/macos/upgrade) and [macOS Ventura](https://www.apple.com/macos/macos-ventura-preview/), allows you to turn off the recording indicator in any app, and requires adjusting security settings.
+Recording Indicator Utility supports the latest version of [macOS Ventura](https://apps.apple.com/app/macos-ventura/id1638787999) and [macOS Monterey](https://apps.apple.com/app/macos-monterey/id1576738294). It requires adjusting security settings.
 
 [undot](https://github.com/s4y/undot) and [YellowDot](https://lowtechguys.com/yellowdot/) only support macOS 12.1 and earlier, allow you to turn off the recording indicator in full-screen apps, and do not require adjusting security settings. 
 
-#### What happens if I update macOS?
-After updating macOS, changes to the microphone recording indicator will be automatically reset. You can open Recording Indicator Utility and turn it back off.
-
 #### Can I use Recording Indicator Utility with multiple copies of macOS?
 Yes. Changes you made in Recording Indicator Utility only affect the current Startup Disk. After restarting to a different Startup Disk, you can run Recording Indicator Utility again to apply changes to that Startup Disk.
 
-Recording Indicator Utility may be unreliable if you share the same volume name across multiple volumes. To resolve this, rename these volumes so that each of them has a different name.

 ### Troubleshooting Tips
 
-#### What if my Mac no longer starts up?

 #### Why does Netflix and Apple TV+ stream video in HD instead of 4K?
 When System Integrity Protection is turned off, certain premium video providers such as [Netflix](https://www.netflix.com) and [Apple TV+](http://tv.apple.com) limit video quality to HD.
