You may have to reboot if you really messed something up but the instructions I
gave for preferences are the main way you set your function keys.
No, these are not custom commands; they are normal ones that work when your
function keys are set for standard use. Sometimes voiceover users don't know
about the other ways with function keys to go to dock or menus etc because
there are also ways to do this with voiceover.

Hi Ian, thanks to your email, but not the keyboard commander, I think, it was
the function keys that I set sometimes ago, which I can’t remember how I did it
now.
Anyway, it’s great that voiceover provides us many ways to activate an
application.
I was trying some key commands, and I think that’s what mess up my settings.
Cheers,

Late to the conversation here, are these keyboard commands you set up? I
don’t recognize them as default commands. If they are custom commands you set
up through the keyboard commander, it’s possible you turned off keyboard
commander itself. You can check this in Voiceover preferences.
Good luck,
Ian

Yeah, I can reach the menu with control-option-m, or capslock m, and the
dock with control-option-d, or capslock d, which are good enough, as I
guess, I cannot get back what I have lost!

What happens when you try to do these?
Also you can also reach the menu with control-option-m and the dock with
control-option-d. That will work fine and you could maybe try rebooting to
see if you get your other method back.

I was working with my mac, usually, I pressed control f2 to activate apple
menu, and control f3 to open doc, but these commands now just disappeared,
and I can’t understand how I did it!
Any idea how to put them back?
Using MacBook pro on OS Sierra.
Thank you in advance for any help.
