Emoji

How did this Get included in an update and how do I get rid of it.

Why was this even put in if I did not want.

I Have some choice words that I can't use here.

I don't want Emoji and when I accidently hit the key to turn them on I have to reboot to use the regular key board.

HOW DO I GET RID OF EMOJI

Answer
Answer

This is a built-in feature of the Windows touch screen tablet keyboard and cannot be removed.

You have two choices:

  1. Don't click the button.  It only shows on-demand, so if you don't do it, it will never show.

  2. Use another keyboard.  For example, you can use the Windows 7 on-screen keyboard instead by pressing WinLogo+R and running the file name osk.exe (for "on screen keyboard")
