Touch Bar flickering

I have a MacBook pro 2020. Suddenly started the touchbar to flicker continually. It's literally annoying.


I have tried resetting SMC and NVRAM found in another post. But still its not stopped. I have also upgraded the OS to 17 still it remains. Please advice


Thanks

Jay

Troubleshooting a Flickering Touchbar:


A. SMC and NVRAM:

Try the SMC and NVRAM resets thrice. It may take more than one try. Note that these resets are for Intel-based Macs only. A 2020 MBP may or may not have an Intel processor. To see which chip you have, go to Apple menu > About this Mac > Chip


B. Single-Out this User:

Create and log in to a temporary Administrator Account. See if you still get this error. If not, then it is an issue with your current usr. If so, then it is an issue with the Mac (in which case, getting this serviced may be need be). You can trash this use you've just created.
