    I've found, that the Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service,
    or ctfmon.exe had somehow been disabled.

    Upon setting this service to Manual (Trigger Start).
    This corrected the Emoji Panel issue I was experiencing.

    Hi All,
    I also posted this same question here...
    Entering Emoji on Hardware Keyboard with Emoji Panel in Windows 10

    Anyway,

    I'm running the latest version of win 10 and the emoji panel will not open,
    using either Win + period, or Win + semicolon key's.

    I've done a system file check and no integrity violations were found.

    Is there a know service, that needs to be turned on/running for this to work?
    Or maybe there's a setting I've overlooked, or perhaps turned off?

    Any suggestion on how to correct this issue, would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    As a side note:
    The emoji panel use to open as intended, but now it doesn't.
    It also did not function, prior to the latest August 14, 2018 - KB4343909 (OS Build 17134.228) update.
    it used to work well for me but suddenly the hot keys stopped responding.

    Have you checked to see if this service,
    (ctfmon.exe) is set to, at the least Manual (Triggered) and not disabled?

    I'll attempted to explain the process I used here below,
    in the best way I can.

    You first need to access the Windows Services Management Console.
    There are a variety of ways to accomplish this.
    Below are 4 descriptions on how to do this.

    1. Type Services, into the Windows Search Box.
    Then,
    click or tap the search result with the same name.

    2. Click the Start button Win10 Emoji Panel Won't Open-windows_start_button.png.
    Scroll down the list of apps to find Windows Administrative Tools.
    Expand it,
    look for the Services shortcut.

    Click on it.

    3. Access the Control Panel.
    Go to System and Security > Administrative Tools.
    In the list of Administrative Tools,
    find and click on the Services shortcut.

    4. Press, Win + R on the keyboard,
    to open the Run window.
    Type "services.msc" and hit Enter or press OK.

    Using any one of the 4 methods described above,
    should open the Services Management Console.

    Once you've opened the Windows Services Management Console.
    Scroll down the list of services.
    Look for the service,
    Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service.

    Check the Startup Type for this service.
    As you can see from my screenshot shown above.
    The service's startup type on my computer,
    is set to Manual (Trigger Start).

    If the startup type shows as not disabled,
    there is no change necessary.

    However,
    if the service does show as disabled.
    You will need to change the service's startup type.
    To Automatic (Delayed Start),
    Automatic or Manual.

    To change startup type of a service.
    Double click the service to open it's Properties window.

    The General tab opens by default.
    You can then find the ‘Startup Type‘ and change it to Manual,
    Automatic (Delayed Start),
    Automatic, or Disabled.

    Be sure to change it to either Manual,
    Automatic (Delayed Start) or Automatic.

    Click the OK button to save the change and quit.
