Build Error: Microphone class is used but Microphone Usage Description is empty

Question

Hi there I'm trying to build my game for mac, it builds fine for windows but for mac I get these 2 errors:

 Microphone class is used but Microphone Usage Description is empty. App will not work on macOS 10.14+.
 Exception: A required capability description is not set.

I'm definitely not trying to access the microphone in my game. Does anyone know how to fix this? Please help

You need to add a microphone usage description string in iOS Player Settings (which will be added to your Info.plist).

that fixed it. (searched for info.plist in my windows file manager). Now, if only I can figure out why my game thinks the microphone is being used in the first place!

Thanks a lot. I had problems because I wasn't building for iOS, so I didn't have the iOS setting. I had then to download the iOS building package and I managed... Weird though, since I was simply building for $$anonymous$$acOS, no iOS.
