Touch bar suddenly gone.

My touch bar not only isn't working, but it isn't showing up on system preferences? When I go to the keyboard tab in system preferences, the touch bar options are completely gone as if I never had the touch bar in the first place? I restart and shut down my macbook and also made sure it was up to date but the problem isn't solved.

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

Consider reinstalling macOS as the next option.
