Emojis can be used in the name of a file or folder in Windows 10. This is

Emojis are smileys and ideograms that are commonly used in apps,
particularly chats and instant messengers. Smileys are a fairly old
concept. They were initially implemented primarily through static images
and animated GIFs for web pages and instant messaging apps. Modern
smileys, also known as “Emojis,” are typically implemented in Unicode
fonts and, on occasion, as images. They are natively supported by a large
number of apps on mobile platforms, but color emoji support in Windows
Desktop apps is uncommon unless the app supports DirectWrite. Emojis can
be rendered using Unicode fonts on Android, iOS, and Windows starting with
Windows 8.
