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.
Well, if that describes you, Microsoft wants you to know that they’re listening and they care. According to Windows Latest, Microsoft is reportedly working on adding the emoji panel to the taskbar, granting immediate access to emojis no matter what you’re doing.
Although there’s already a keyboard shortcut for accessing the emoji panel — simply press Windows key + Period or Windows key + Semicolon — it’s clear that not everyone is aware of it. After all, who can really remember the hundreds of keypress combinations that exist?
Microsoft hasn’t officially confirmed the move to add the emoji panel to the taskbar, so there’s no word on when this change is going to come. But the UI settings for it appear to exist in Windows 11 based on some leaked strings that indicate an “Emojis and more” taskbar button.
