Hi, Two ways that I’m aware of.
1. Go into System Prefs, iCloud, iCloud Drive then press on the Options button and uncheck TextEdit from the table of apps. Since TextEdit doesn’t have an iOS app, this shouldn’t affect anything with saving of documents other than the TextEdit folder being removed from the iCloud Drive. You could first check if there were any documents in that folder first before unchecking the box and moving them into a new folder not named TextEdit so you don’t lose anything. 2. Go into Terminal and enter the following command: defaults write -g NSShowAppCentricOpenPanelInsteadOfUntitledFile -bool false You’ll need to Quit and re-open TextEdit after running this command. HTH. Later...

The way I deal with it is to hit command+n to open a new document. I know it's an extra key stroke but that seems to be the only way. Once the new document is opened, I also check that it is set to wrap to window rather than page with the shortcut key command+shift+w. If it wraps to page, then voiceover doesn't read text properly past the first page. Hope this helps.
