Hi all,
When I try to press Win+. or Win+; to open the emoji panel after I've installed the Fall Creators Update, it doesn't seem to work. This is using a Dell Precision 5520.
Many thanks!

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
The Emoji panel (accessed by holding the Windows key then tapping ; or . ) is only supported for English American keyboard.
This needs to be fixed so it can be used in all languages.
If you need the emoji panel add the American Keyboard 👿
Wow! Thank you so much. It worked for me. I just changed my keyboard's language from English(Philippines) to English(United States) and the Win+. shortcut worked 👍😊
I'm from the Philippines btw, so clearly, it can work even if you're not in the US.

Correction:
The keyboard can be set to English (US), BUT, the Region must be USA. It is not currently available in other countries regardless of the K/B language used. It's a location issue (right now) not, a language issue.

Launch Twitter, Word, Outlook or any other application that supports emoji symbols and the panel will show up. It won't show if you just attempt to launch it by itself. 😁👏👌 It even works when replying online.
Right, that is the idea. But, currently, as stated, in the USA, only. Still, the added info is cool.
