Beginning its global rollout on 2023-10-31, the Windows11 23H2 update introduced support for Emoji 15.0&nbsp;to the flat versions of the&nbsp;Fluent emoji design set used by the OS since its November 2021 update.

This update also redesigned a selection of emojis within the flat Fluent set. These redesigns include many smiley emojis&nbsp;having the size and positioning of their dotted black pupils subtly modified, the&nbsp;🙏 Folded Hands being shown&nbsp;isometrically, the 👽 Alien changed from grey to green once again, and the previously atypical width of the vendor&#39;s four-person family emoji designs&nbsp;being revised.

Additionally, a bug appears to have swapped the designs of the various&nbsp;🧏&zwj;♂️ Deaf Man and&nbsp;🧏&zwj;♀️ Deaf Woman emojis.
