Accented characters have disappeared from Touch Bar of macbook pro

Hi- I no longer see accented characters in the Touch Bar of my MacBook Pro. I just restarted my computer and downloaded the new software update to fix it but still having the same issue. Can you please let me know how I can bring them back?


thanks!

Hi ArianaMo,


Wondering if you have the third-party product "Webroot SecureAnywhere" installed on your Mac.

If so, you might need to make an adjustment, so accented characters will appear as usual on Touch Bar.

You're welcome.

Thank you for letting me know.

Sorry that article was on no help.

Wondering if it is in every suitable app that this doesn't work.


The only other info: seems to be:

Enter characters with accent marks on Mac

The described method seems to work ok for some /most of us.

All the best :)
