Close all cmd or terminal windows including git for windows. Otherwise you may later see errors; open a new Windows cmd terminal (Windows + R keys and then type cmd) type cd projects and enter key; run build script by typing build-audacity.cmd and enter. Come back later - it will take at least 10 minutes (all the yellow warnings can be ignored). Cmd+Click on Audacity and choose 'Open', this permanently saves Audacity as an exception so you can open it despite it being from an unidentified developer. You can use `cau` in Alfred to open the app correctly. A terminal window will open up first and then Audacity will open. Closing the Terminal window will close Audacity.

Audacity Terms Of Use
If you’ve recently upgraded your Mac to Catalina or Mac OS 10.15.1, you may have noticed that Audacity is no longer working. To get it working, you’ll need to download version Audacity 2.3.3. However, installing and running it normally the way you’ve done it in the past will not be enough. Because of Catalina, Audacity is not able to gain permissions to the microphone inputs. The only way I was able to get it working is to launch Audacity from the Terminal.
Launch Audacity from the Terminal.
Click Ok if prompted to use the microphone.
