An analytics company called NetApplications has updated usage data for the Windows operating system. The update reveals that the transition from Windows 7 to Windows 10 has stopped almost completely. Experts attribute this to two reasons.
US tech giant Microsoft ended an era in early 2020. The company updated its Windows 7 operating system, which was introduced to users years ago on January 14, and has stopped to serve this operating system. Users have since been vulnerable to a new vulnerability that could be discovered.
Windows 7 was an essential operating system for many users. Because since Windows 8, Microsoft has changed the overall appearance of the operating system. In addition, with Windows 8, many users have declared that their new operating systems are much more than Windows 7.
In recent times, Microsoft has put Windows 7 users under great pressure. Microsoft gave users the advice to “Go to Windows 10” with the notifications it sends to computers, and couldn’t see the attention they expected. It is only in June and December that users tend to quit Windows 7. However, a transition from Windows 7 to Windows 10 was not observed before and after that.
An analytics company called NetApplications has updated all of its Windows operating system data and has announced user usage rates on Windows 10 and Windows 7 to date. New data from NetApplications clearly indicates that users continue to use Windows 7 even after Microsoft has removed support. Now let’s take a look at the current usage rates for Windows 7 and Windows 10.
The data you will see in the photo above includes the period from March 2019 to early February 2020. As the table shows, users tended to abandon Windows 7 in June and December of last year. After Microsoft removed support for Windows 7, that is, in January, we can clearly see that users have not reacted much to this situation.
According to experts, there are two reasons why Windows 7 users almost stopped switching to Windows 10. The first reason; the release of new PCs has slowed down. The second reason is the Corona virus. Experts say the epidemic of Corona virus is particularly affecting suppliers, which is reducing PC sales. The latest figures show that Windows 7 will continue to be used for a long time.
