Emoji has disappeared from touchbar Macbook Pro

I was so enjoying using the emojis using my Touch Bar on my new MacBook Pro. It's suddenly stopped appearing and I have followed all troubleshooting techniques suggested in order to get it back but to no avail.


I have attempted to change the keyboard settings to APP controls. That does not work so then I try expanded Control strip.


I have also attempted to customize the touchbar by dragging and dropping but there is no emoji option to even drag.


Help please.

Not all applications support Emojis on the Touchbar.


Customize the Touch Bar on Mac - Apple Support



if you still have issues on the Intel Mac you can try:


resetting the SMC https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295


resetting NVRAM/PRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379





Control Command Spacebar will present the character view most anywhere.
