Windows 10: Disable emojis on Windows touch screen keyboard for Windows 10

Hello,I want to disable the emojis option on a Windows 10 touch keyboard. I don't want this button visible to the end userI have come across a lot of different posts explaining how to do this but none seem to match the file hierarchy of my registry. Specifically I see a lot posts telling me to change the input/settings but I don't have this option in my registry. Below is a screenshot of my registry structure. snipCan you advise please?

How to fix emoji keyboard not showing up using shortcut

Hi,

This issue is often caused by a corrupted or missing data file. To better isolate if this is a user profile specific or an emerging issue, we suggest that you create a new user profile and try to use the same keyboard shortcut to get the emoji keyboard to
show up. Here's the link for the steps on how to:
Set up accounts.

In the meantime, we'll give you the steps for a workaround to access the emojis. Here are the steps:

• Right-click on the Taskbar.
• Select the Show touch keyboard button option and a keyboard icon will show up on your
  Taskbar.
  
• Click the keyboard icon and select the emoji button.

Let us know how it goes and we'll assist you further if needed.

 

Can I use emojis on a Windows PC without a touch keyboard

Similar to How can I use emoji characters on a Windows 8 PC without a touch screen? but for Windows 10. I have a bog standard PC with Windows 10 installed. I tried doing the same as the suggestion for Windows 8 but that doesn't seem to work.

Most tips you find out there speak of having a screen keyboard popping up, but I don't have such an icon in the task bar that would activate the touch keyboard. Is there any other way to get to the in-built emojis?

 

no emoji button on Touch Keyboard in Windows 10

There are two ways of getting to the on-screen keyboard, and as it turns out they are different keyboards. If you use the on-screen keyboard app you get the keyboard without the emoji button, if you use the keyboard button in your system tray (normally bottom
right of your screen) you get the keyboard with the emoji button.

If you've upgraded to Windows 10 version 1709 (you can check by pressing the start button, typing 'winver' and pressing <Enter>) you may find the keyboard button in the system tray has disappeared (it did for me.) If this has happened right-click a blank
area on your taskbar and select 'Show touch keyboard button' - you should now see the button in your system tray. Click that and you should see the on-screen keyboard that includes the emoji button.
