What to Do If the SecretFolder "Failed to ConnectToFilterDriver" Error Occurs
The SecretFolder program is not installing properly at the moment, so you will need to remove it manually in order to delete it completely. The steps are explained in detail below.
First, press the Windows key and the R key on your keyboard at the same time. A small input window called "Run" will then appear on the screen. Type "regedit" exactly into that window and press Enter to open the Registry Editor. The Registry Editor is a tool that can modify system settings, so please proceed carefully.
Once the Registry Editor is open, go to the following path in the tree on the left:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\SecretFolder_is1
Find the "SecretFolder_is1" key at this location, right-click it, and select "Delete" to remove the key completely. This path is mainly used on 64-bit systems.
If you cannot find the "SecretFolder_is1" key in the path above, your system may be 32-bit, so please check the following path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\SecretFolder_is1
At this location as well, find the "SecretFolder_is1" key, right-click it, and select "Delete" to remove it. This will clean up the registry entries related to SecretFolder.
Once the registry work is complete, you will need to delete the folder related to SecretFolder from the file system. First, open File Explorer and go to the following path:
%programfiles(x86)%\SecretFolder
This is usually the default installation path on a 64-bit system. %programfiles(x86)% typically refers to C:\Program Files (x86), and there should be a folder named "SecretFolder" there. Find that folder, right-click it, and select "Delete" to remove the folder and all files inside it completely.
If you cannot find the "SecretFolder" folder in the path above, your system may be 32-bit, so please check the following path:
%programfiles%\SecretFolder
This path, %programfiles%, usually refers to C:\Program Files. Here as well, find the "SecretFolder" folder, right-click it, and select "Delete" to remove the folder and all of its contents.
Once you complete all of the steps, the registry entries and files related to the SecretFolder program will be completely removed from your system. If you run into any issues during the process or have trouble finding the path, check whether you entered the path correctly or whether you are running with administrator privileges. By following this process, you can manually remove SecretFolder cleanly.

How to Record Microphone and Computer Audio Together While Recording (Windows Vista, 7, 8)
For Windows Vista, 7, and 8, normal operation may not be guaranteed because Microsoft has ended support for these operating systems. (Reference)
In the oCam main window, click the Sound button.
The following menu will appear, and by default, No Microphone Recording is selected.
Select the microphone you want to record. ( If your microphone does not appear in the list, refer to the instructions below. )
Once selected, the setting will be applied as shown below, and the microphone audio will be recorded together.
If the microphone device does not appear in the list above even though the microphone is connected, proceed as follows.
( If, as shown below, no microphone-related menu appears at all and only the system sound recording menu is shown, or if a microphone item appears but not all microphone devices are listed, or if you are using a separately purchased audio interface, the audio interface device rather than the default microphone device should appear in the list. If it does not, follow this procedure. )
Go to Start Menu - Control Panel.
In Control Panel, find and click Sound.
The following window will appear. Click the Recording tab.
In the Recording tab, right-click the white area where it says No audio devices are installed to open the pop-up menu. ( Or, if recording devices are listed but the device you want does not appear. )
Click Show Disabled Devices.
Select the microphone device you want to use, right-click it, and click Enable.
( If you are using an audio interface, a separate recording device called Line In may appear instead of a microphone, and you should record using that device. )
In oCam, click the Sound button to check whether the microphone device now appears correctly.
