Hi,
I've got a problem with my MacBook pro 2017 with touch bar. When I'm turning my laptop on, Touch Bar screen is white. It stays white all the time and I can't see anything on it. When i click on place where escape button is suppoused to be, button works, but everything is still white. Couple months ago I had the same problem and i reseted SMC and NVRAM and it helped, but now it's all white again and neither resetting SMC, or NVRAM works.
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15
Thats all I have for now. Beyond the above recommendations, You can have your MacBook Pro examined at the Apple Store or an Authorized Service Center when they open or contact ➔ Apple Support

Thank you for your answer. This is what I did:
First I opened Activity monitor, and then I noticed that, on CPU, and memory tab there wasn't such a process as TouchBarServer, but it was on disk tab. I killed it from disk tab and the process started to appear on both CPU and memory tab. Then I went to terminal and I did
sudo killall ControlStrip
and
sudo pkill TouchBarServer
then i reseted my MacBook and turned it on safe mode and TouchBar appeared!
It was working for couple minutes, then it blinked and now its all white again. I think this might be some software related issue. I will try to wipe out my disk and install MacOS Catalina again.
From what you posted, this is definitely software related. I think getting into Recovery Mode and then reinstalling macOS should resolve the issue.
