Unicode [Emoji[s]] in Marked Text Causes Failure to Save Any of that Text

I can work around this issue if there aren't a lot of Unicode Emojis, but it would be nice to understand what's causing this.

  • Win10 32-bit with latest Chrome Browser (will test on a nearly fresh install of Win10 64-bit shortly). Host Application runs fine. (Update: Win10 64-bit Machine (nearly fresh install) handles the Unicode Saves just fine. I suspect another chrome extension may be causing interference. More on this, later.)
  • Haven't actually tested this other than with Normal (Non-Unicode?) Text with Unicode Emojis in that text (until now) using this Unicode Test Page: http://www.madore.org/~david/misc/unitest/
  • Behavior is such that the Text File Gets Allocated but nothing written to it if there are Unicode Characters in the Marked Text

Any [obvious] ideas as to what may be causing this? If not, no worries. I'll eventually figure it out. If the Unicode Characters were simply stripped from the text (in my case) it would be fine, but I can imagine not being able to copy/save any Unicode Text wouldn't be a nice situation for most others.

Thanks.
