Windows: How to insert emojis 😀💻

Did you know you can easily insert emojis in to your emails, documents, messages, and elsewhere using your Windows computer?

To access the Windows 10 emoji picker, press either of the following two shortcut combinations:

Windows Key + Period / Full Stop (.)

Windows Key + Semicolon (;)

Typing either of these keyboard shortcuts will bring up an inline emoji picker, complete with search field.

To find an emoji, you can either scroll through the list, use the category icons at the bottom of the emoji picker, or type the word for the emoji you want. For example, typing the word present filters the available emoji for you. Then simply click the one you want to insert it into your email.
