Description of the new feature

Currently, the Uzbekistan flag emoji 🇺🇿, which is officially included in the Unicode Standard, does not render correctly in Windows Terminal, CMD, or many parts of the Windows ecosystem due to missing glyph support in the default Windows emoji fonts (such as Segoe UI Emoji) or rendering issues in terminal environments.

This results in the Uzbekistan flag appearing as:

  • an empty box
  • a missing-character symbol
  • or nothing at all

This is disappointing for Uzbek users because Uzbekistan is a Unicode-supported, fully recognized independent country, and its flag should be displayed correctly across Windows environments.

The feature request:
Please add full rendering support for the Uzbekistan flag emoji 🇺🇿 in Windows Terminal and the underlying Windows emoji font stack, so that it displays consistently across CMD, PowerShell, Windows Terminal, Notepad, and all modern Windows applications.

Why this feature is important

  • Ensures full Unicode compliance for all country flags, including Uzbekistan
  • Improves international and multilingual UX across Windows
  • Supports inclusivity for users whose country flags currently fail to render
  • Enhances developer experience in terminals, documentation, and CLI tools where Unicode is heavily used
  • Aligns Windows with Android, iOS, macOS, Linux, and web platforms where 🇺🇿 already renders correctly

Proposed technical implementation details

  • Update Segoe UI Emoji and/or Segoe Color Emoji to include the 🇺🇿 (U+1F1FA U+1F1FF) glyph pair
  • Ensure the updated emoji font is used by Windows Terminal, CMD, and PowerShell
  • Optionally add an automatic fallback to a supported emoji font if the primary one lacks certain country flags
  • Validate rendering in both single-width and double-width environments
  • Include tests for Unicode Regional Indicator Symbols in terminal rendering pipelines
