Windows 7 Still Used on Every Fourth PC – review

Resource NetMarketShare published new data regarding the use of Windows 7. As it turned out, the outdated operating system remains quite popular, despite the termination of support.
According to the source, 25.02% of users still work with it, while in Windows 10 the share is 57.39% of the total. At the same time, we note that Microsoft is actively trying to “transfer” users to the new version of the system, but this is unlikely to change much in the near future.
It is important to note that according to Steam, Windows 10 audience growth in February will be just over one percent. The 64-bit “seven” lost about the same amount, while the 32-bit even increased its share, although only by 0.06%.

In general, the situation on the OS market has clearly stabilized. Now we should expect that the increase in the share of the new OS will go only in the process of updating the hardware for users, since drivers on Windows 7 for new motherboards and video cards are often no longer being developed. With rare exceptions.
