Hi, For some silly reason I can no longer recall I did not choose to have Voice Over start automatically when I boot my Mac Mini. So, I'm forever doing Command F5 before logging in. It's getting old, but I'm also not finding where to undo this choice and choose to have Voice Over auto-enabled on startup for the login.
I'm poking around in Users and Groups but not finding this as a login option. Seems I'm missing something obvious, but I am stumped. This is Big Sur 11.15.2. Any help gratefully accepted.
