Comment désactiver the Tenor GIF selector dans Windows emoji picker?

Windows Client (10, 11, 12) Windows 11

The Windows 11 emoji picker (invoked avec clavier raccourci WIN + .) has a GIF search fonctionnalité which immediately starts flashing distracting animations while Je viens de want to search for a :+1: or :sob:

Existe-t-il un moyen de désactiver just the GIF “Powered by Tenor” part? C’est incredibly visually distracting, jamais mind presumably sending data to a third party avec apparemment no opt-out.

Despite no official option, it seems vous pouvez désactiver it thanks to a tip from here, expanded to clarify:

  • Open Windows Defender Firewall (panneau de configuration) via menu Démarrer

  • Click Advanced settings sur le left

  • Click Outbound Rules dans le left side bar

  • Click New Rule... top right and follow these steps clicking Next après each one:

choose Program

paste this in for Program path

C:\Windows\SystemApps\MicrosoftWindows.Client.CBS_cw5n1h2txyewy\TextInputHost.exe

choose Block the connection

tick all profiles to apply the rule no matter what réseau you are on

give it a name e.g. TextInputHost.exe to block GIF search in emoji picker

click Finish

Maintenant try WIN + . again and behold, no annoying flashing animations :tada:
