  1. Universal Character Map


    I'm trying to download this from the Microsoft and I keep getting the following error:This file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the default app settings page. No clue what any of that means. I've never had any issues downloading things. Please help!

    :)

  2. Character Map

    Hi Susan,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    To have better clarity on the issue, answer the below listed questions and get back to us.

    1. Did you make any changes to the PC prior to this issue?
    2. Does this issue occur on Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, or any other browser?
    3. Once the text disappears, are you able to undo that by press the 'Ctrl' key and the 'Z' key from your keyboard?

    Meanwhile, try the below troubleshooting steps:

    Method 1: Check if your Windows is Up-to-date.

    Go to Settings > Update and Security >
    Windows Updates and install all the Windows Updates if there are any.

    Method 2: Use a different browser

    Use a different browser to access Gmail and see if you are facing the same issue.

    Method 3: Adding the characters manually from Character Map.

    Step 1: Click on the
    Start Menu and search for Character Map and hit
    Enter.

    Step 2: Once the
    Character Map launches, look for the character that you want to add >
    Select that character and click on Copy.

    Step 3: Go to the email that
    you want to add the character and paste the character by pressing the ‘Windows’ key and the ‘V’ key from your keyboard and see if the characters are disappearing.

    ​Hope it helps.

    Hi Amy

    Since you are using Windows 10, click the link below to get the new Character Map App for Windows 10

    It has much better features and you can zoom in and out in that App, using Ctrl + your scroll Wheel
