Looks like I am not the first person to notice this. I have been using the emoji keyboard for a while now and only recently noticed this peculiar issue. I can assume that Microsoft does not want to offend their corporate users but still... Emoji is a globally accepted standard. If my phone's keyboard can show it, why not my computer's operating system? Insane.
Middle Finger Emoji
I can't find the middle finger emoji in emoji board
Also my unicode are supported the emoji, I can see it on websites, but except copy and paste, I can't do other things to get it

🖕) just fine.

After doing some research, it appears other people have been experiencing the same problem. The only solution I could find is to type a particular four letter word beginning with F, followed by the word "you". The middle finger emoji should show up as a suggestion that you can select, and it will insert it into your text.
I hope this helps! If you have any other issues, please let me know.

when you feel the need for a middle finger emoji, try a laughing face, it will annoy those that were trying to upset you and/or placate those that thought you were in the wrong.
