black screen in Catalina
I'm suffering from a black screen on my MacBook Pro after every sleep event.
Only way out is to hit the off button and restart every single time.
Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks

This appears to work as a solution.
This was NOT my idea, but from another Black Screen thread but I can't get the link thread to work.
Restart your computers in SAFE MODE (hold down the shift key during the reboot)
You will know if you have correctly entered SAFE mode because it appears in RED in the menu bar
In SAFE MODE my laptop returned to normal Wake / Sleep behaviour including closing and opening the lid.
Then RESTART as normal (literally make no other change, just restart SAFE restart normal) and it seems to be FIXED !!!
- There is no explanation for why this makes a difference it just works.

Aw, too bad, was hoping for a nice workaround :P Right now I hard-reboot 10 times per day
Well done Itrecartin!!!
Thank you
Solution did not work for me.
I have the same issue. I’ve tried several remedies, nothing has worked so far. It’s sporadic and unpredictable.
they where clueless when I talked to them also , said no one else is having this type of problem...
I am looking for mac book mar virtual reality development software
SAfe mode is not a fix or solution. Apple had me do that and the problem does not occur in safemode, but booting back to normal mode the problem is still there.
Since this is not a solution, can you mark it as not solved so maybe Apple folks will pay attention to it?
Shrug. Seems that it doesn't work if the computer is closed for longer periods of time
System won't let me undo the 'solved' button lol
The only working solution is to power off your MacBook, close the lid and when you need to use it again power it back on. What a pain.....
Come on Apple help us resolve this!
Yea this really needs to be set to unsolved, but the person who marked it as solved is not able to undo it.
Same issue Late 2016 touchbar MBP. I have tried every suggestion all to no avail :(
I have the same issue after installing Catalina. Never happened in old versions of OS.
