Reinstall the macOS:
Sometimes, changes are made to your Mac (i.e. Updates), and then settings (i.e. for eMojis), become manipulated, technically. So, reinstalling the macOS will place moved items back to where they should be, and will replace damaged system files.
1. First, Back up your Mac:
Create a Time Machine backup of your Mac, so that you can have something to restore your Mac from, should anything go wrong with the reinstall. Use an external Hard Drive of at least 1.5 times the size of your internal hard drive.
2. Then, Reinstall the macOS:
Nothing would be deleted. It's just that items that have become corrupted or deleted, would be replaced or reinstalled back to where they should be. Go Here: How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery - Apple Support
