Hi forum!

I just downgraded my Windows 10 to Windows 7 again. I noticed the Firefox in Windows 10 supported Emoji emoticons (for instance when chatting on Facebook). I however noticed they are not available in Windows 7. Some of them now appear as squares as you are probably also familiar with.

How can I setup that my Firefox/Computer shows the necessary Emojis?


Thank you for your reply!

Same here, both on FF and Chrome.
