Windows Key + .

[Ash]

Does anyone use the Windows Key + . (full stop) to get the new emoji window? You can use it to insert some of the native device emojis into your content on websites and it's great for sites that don't have a dedicated emoji button/system.

I have done, but I'd be lying if I said I did so regularly. It's a good function to have!

I did not even know you could do that.
Interesting I shall try that later today.

I too didn’t even know about it!

Was amazed when I found out about it too. I usually had to go on a website that listed all the emojis and then copy them.

Didn't know about this either. Thanks @Ash for letting us know!

I always known about it, but it was something that never really enters my mind LOL

I really don't bother with shortcuts much, I can't recall them all really.

Do you not use the basic ones either like the shortcuts for cutting, copying, and pasting?

I am not much into keyboard shortcuts. I assume those things would save my time if used right. I only recently learned about the RGB shortcuts and they can be pretty good too. I think Windows key shortcuts are cool.

I love using shortcuts & keyboard entries. However, I have never heard of this one either. Can it be used for emails too? Some of my emails have such basic emojis that I just don't even bother.

It's a Windows shortcut so you should be able to use it anywhere and everywhere that you can visit on your laptop/PC. So emails, Word etc.

I use it all the time to launch desktops and, technically, to switch apps (Win+Tab) and virtual desktops (Ctrl+Win Left/Right) on Windows 10, though I actually use mouse macros for those.
