Touch Bar Zoom with Circle and Delay keeps coming back

Hello community,


I recently did a long research - and was quite annoyed - that this "feature" did hit me without notice or activity from my side. So I was very happy to find a solution that worked: Disable accesability -> touch bar zoom!!!

Who would have thought oft that?


Now very recently I had to do this research again after yelling for two evenings on my Mac Book Pro :-(


Is there a fix that I do not have to do this again, please?


Thank you!

Steff

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
