Emoji Search Not Working on Windows 10: Keyboard Language Input Change

Are you having trouble using emoji search on your Windows 10 computer? It can be frustrating when you want to add some fun and emotion to your messages or social media posts, but the emoji search feature is not working properly. Don't worry, we're here to help you fix this issue!

Keyboard Language Input Change

One common reason why emoji search may not be working on Windows 10 is due to a change in the keyboard language input settings. Windows 10 allows you to switch between different keyboard languages and layouts, which can affect how emoji search functions.

Here's how you can check and change your keyboard language input settings:

1. Click on the Start menu and select "Settings" (the gear icon).
2. In the Settings window, click on "Time & Language".
3. On the left sidebar, select "Language".
4. Under the "Preferred languages" section, click on the language you are currently using for your keyboard.
5. Click on "Options".
6. Scroll down to the "Keyboards" section and check if the correct keyboard layout is selected.
7. If the correct layout is not selected, click on "Add a keyboard" and choose the appropriate layout.
8. Make sure the desired keyboard layout is set as the default by selecting it and clicking on "Set as default".

After making these changes, try using emoji search again to see if the issue is resolved. If not, don't worry, there are other troubleshooting steps you can try.

Restart Your Computer

Sometimes, a simple restart can fix various issues on your computer, including problems with emoji search. Here's how you can restart your Windows 10 computer:

1. Click on the Start menu.
2. Click on the power icon located above the Start button.
3. Select "Restart".

Once your computer restarts, check if emoji search is now working. If the issue persists, let's move on to the next troubleshooting step.
