Hello Christina, I'm guessing that your VoiceOver preference settings for the "Menus" tab under the "Visuals" category of VoiceOver Utility somehow got changed, or perhaps the preference file associated with this setting got corrupted. If you previously used the option under VoiceOver Utility to set up portable preferences on an external memory stick, so you can either keep a current copy of your VoiceoVer preference settings, or transfer them to other Mac computers, you can import these back.
Your preference setups for every application are stored in small associated files with ".plist" extensions in their names. These files are opened every time you launch an app, and rewritten every time you close that app. So over time there is a small chance that one of your preference settings might get corrupted. If you remove a preference file, a new one with all the default values is created the next time the app is launched. But you don't want to do this in cases where you have lots of customized preferences, because you'd have to start from scratch! HTH.
