The MacBook Pro Touch Bar has become the most controversial innovation that tech giant Apple released in any of its products launched this year, since replacing the function keys represent a major change that customers could take time to get used to. In fact, this could even end up being a major fiasco, considering that the escape key and the rest of this strip has been something that has existed both in laptops and desktops since day one.

Given this delicate situation, CNET reported that the Cupertino company is now offering an easy guide to bring back this escape key on the MacBook Pro Touch Bar, being a so simple process that customers wouldn't last more than 5 minutes in doing it. Naturally, this could increase their confidence in this device, considering that the old-school function keys can still be used.

Then you´ll have to click on the tab that will appear at the top and click Modifier Keys Button, so then you just have to click Caps Lock, Control, Command or Option key to act as the well-known Escape key, and click OK.

As reported by Mac World, these little steps to recover the escape key on the MacBook Pro with Touch Bar can also be performed on any single Mac running MacOS Sierra, which is a clever move from the Cupertino company, given the fact that several customers use this kind of devices.
