Hello, I replaced the Win 11 emoji file with one which everyone on webgroups SAID was going to roll back to Win 10 emoji's. However, the file is corrupted or not displaying correctly. How can I go BACK to the original Win 11 file?f

July 23, 2024 -

I just bought a PC and installed windows 11 on it (I've always used windows 10 on my laptop) and I was greeted with some atrocious looking emojis

I hate everything about these and how they look, please tell me there is a way to change the set of emojis you have to something else

EDIT: I followed this forum post and it worked for me https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/change-windows-11-emoji-set.291051/

Hi there! I hope you are well. My name is, Zadee. I'll try my best to help you today.

This setting seems to be removed in Win 11. Similar query in the thread below and they do not see this setting as well.

However, I'd like you to test this registry modification suggested in the guide below, please. Only follow Option Two in the guide.

Please let me know if that works or not. Thank you.

I see. Thank you. This just means even the registry key has been modified by Windows. We need to send feedback to Microsoft regarding this, David. This is something that Windows Engineers need to address at this point, this is a function that they might have missed.

You can use the article below as your guide in creating the feedback.

Windows 11 just made it way easier to type emojis | PCWorld
April 9, 2025 - Updated April 9, 2025: Yesterday, with April’s Patch Tuesday update KB5055523, Microsoft rolled out the “emoji and more” panel that’s now accessible via a system tray icon in the taskbar. This feature was previously available in the optional KB5053656 update from March, and before that was available in the preview update mentioned below. The easiest way to install KB5055523 is via Windows Update. Original story from December 10, 2024: Microsoft seems to think Windows 11 users are clamoring for easier ways to insert emojis, as if we’re so constantly in need of quick access to emojis on a day-to-day basis that we need super shortcuts for it.
