• Sloth – A Mac app that shows all open files, directories, sockets, etc.

  FSMonitor[0] is similar to the old FileMon[1] but for macOS. In the default tree view, as new data is written, the entries are highlighted and sort of throb, so it's easy to track what's going on.

• App wants to make changes

  They're hard to find these days for later versions of macOS, but you could try a file monitor so you can see what files the app is making changes to. You could try the free trial of FSMonitor. I'm just not sure how much you can do with the free trial though. Or look on GitHub to see if someone has scripted something similar. Source: over 1 year ago

• An app to find out which app created a file/folder?

  Maybe FSMonitor can help if you set it to watch the parent folder. Source: about 2 years ago

• The orange dot appears while on the lock screen but goes away right after I login. Does this happen for anyone else? I'm starting to think that a hidden process is using the microphone

  You can use something like FSMonitor to watch/analyze which files are being touched while the orange dot is on. Source: over 2 years ago

• Terminal Command to Disable Spotlight Shortcut

  Check out defaults and FSMonitor. With a little playing around you can probably figure it out. Source: almost 3 years ago
