It will depend upon your Windows settings, but the default font for
window title bar captions is MS Sans Serif, which doesn't contain a
trademark symbol.

Look at the MS Sans Serif font (or whichever font you're using) in the
Character Map utility. You'll see that the font simply doesn't define
glyphs for those code points.
