    Disabling a specific program from accessing my microphone

    1. Open the settings app
    2. Go to Privacy - Microphone.
    3. On the right, disable the toggle switch under Allows apps to access your microphone. When access is allowed for the operating system as described above, all apps get access permissions by default.
      4. In the list below, you can control microphone access for certain apps individually. Every listed app has its own toggle option which you can enable or disable.

    Is there a way to only allow specific desktop apps to access your camera or microphone?

    I found how to disable webcam and mic but I have to disable it for all apps if I want to turn it off

    Is there a way to only allow specific apps access? I just want one app to be able to access my webcam and mic but not the others

    Give access to specific apps for Local User

    @dalchina, thanks for the suggestion.

    I tried your blanket option, and that didn't work.

    I filtered per your suggestion:

    However, it seems there are no settings for that filter:
