Windows 11 Update Causes Emoji Distortions
2024-08-12 12:04:19
The latest update for Windows 11 has unexpectedly caused emoji characters to become distorted for many users, specifically after installing build 26040. This visual glitch transforms the emojis into pixelated, monstrous-like figures, leading some to speculate about a new emoji update gone awry.
The issue appears to be related to the default Windows display drivers. Users who have installed drivers from external sources report experiencing normal emojis.
While some have humorously embraced the distorted emojis, the bug potentially hints at more severe graphical issues within the operating system.
To resolve the problem, affected users are advised to:
Update your graphics drivers by visiting your hardware manufacturer’s website and downloading the latest available version.
If the issue persists, users must wait for a future Windows 11 update to see if the developers address the bug.
