According to the new privacy feature of MacOS Mojave 10.14 that needs to confirm permission to use microphone on apps, My Java app (runnable jar) is not recording sound at all when it is running no. Jul 10, 2019 Click the Sharing & Permissions dropdown triangle to view its permissions. Click the Lock button at the bottom of the window and enter your administrator password. Then select the action menu button and choose Apply to enclosed items. Click OK to confirm the action. In the Sharing & Permissions section, do any of the following: Add a user or group: Click the Add button below the list, select a user or group, then click Select.

Then select the indented (usually, Macintosh HD) volume entry from the side list. Beginning with macOS 10.13 and for all subsequent macOS releases, Apple has been tightening the permissions granted to third-party applications, and requiring end users (you) to explicitly allow these applications access to things like the microphone, video camera, hard drive, and macOS.

See this link, the functionality should be simialr
If the drive is MacOS Extended (Journaled) you can turn off permissions globally
if the drive is NTFS then macOS does not allow writing to the drive, and permissions are useless since they don't get read by macOS. You will need 3rd party software to allow writing, it has nothing to do with permissions, and if you don't need the drive physically connected directly to a computer running windows NTFS serves no purpose.

Functionality of 3rd party utilites are up to the 3rd party
and CleanMyMac is scamware, remove it with prejudice before it causes harm to your system.
