Unfortunately KB2729094 updates Segoe UI Symbol, which only has black and white symbols.

You need to install Segoe UI Emoji, which is not freely available, but you can get it from a Windows 10 machine (C:/Windows/Fonts/seguiemj.ttf). Rumour has it you can also google for seguiemj.ttf and get lucky.

Could it be possible to embed seguiemj.ttf or NotoColorEmoji_WindowsCompatible.ttf into the emoji.wpf or emoji.wpf.<fontname> assembly?
