# Microsoft knows how to multiply

I've been using the multiply emoji for a while for my close icons... but, to my big surprise, what did I realize?

Guess who knows how to multiply? Not Microsoft, apparently.

And [I'm not the only one confused](https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/hey-anyone-think-these-emojis-same/ac9d3f89-4854-40ae-8060-3701608ed9da)...

They probably forgot to rotate the icon... sad ! I guess I'll have to use a proper icon until they fix this.
