ESC button gone from touchbar

I used this on the touch bar all the time and now its gone. I have seen complicated steps about resetting xyz, but i dont want to do that. i have also gone in to personalise my touch bar but there is no option to add ESC back. i have a modifier key set up to be my escape button for now


but i am desperate to get my bar back to the way it was - all i had was esc,, sound and brightness.


As it says on the Mac website - What is the Esc key on a Mac?

It replaces the row of function keys, as well as the escape key. Instead, the escape key sits to the far left of the Touch Bar, basically where it is on a physical keyboard, but it isn't always there. When performing certain activities in some apps, the escape key is hidden


My escape key is no longer on the far right of my touchbar.


can anyone provide an easy fix for this?

Windows, Windows 10
