The adoption of the operating system Windows 10 is growing according to Microsoft, especially since the company is trying to do so in a number of ways, essentially pushing users of older operating systems (Windows 7 and 8.1) to upgrade.
But things are not exactly as Microsoft presents them... If you consider that the offer free upgrades Windows 7 and 8,1 users expire in less than 30 days, you'd probably expect an increase in upgrades to Windows 10, especially these days.
So that's it problem is (for Microsoft) is that the Windows 7 shows signs of recovery. It operating system launched in 2009, reaching 49 percent market share is once again headed for 50 percent.
The data comes from third market researchers on Net Applications which places Windows 7 in the leadership of the desktop. So the chart with the operating systems for June of 2016, their market share reaches 49,05 percent, while Windows 10 is followed by 19,14 percent.
To be fair, there has been a significant increase in the adoption of Windows 10 since last month, since 17,43 percent went to 19,14 percent in a month but still is far from the 49,05 percent of Windows 7.
Here, let's mention that Windows 7 also improved its share, since a 48,57 percent in May reached 49.05 per cent in June. This is the second increase seen in its Windows 7 market share, following the decline of 57 percent in July 2015 when XYNUMX was officially released.
Believe it or not, Windows XP is still the third most popular operating system option with a share that reaches 9,78 percent, from a 10,09 percent that was one month ago. This is the first time Windows XP drops below the 10 percent limit, but it is clear that upgrades from the Windows XP operating system are at turtle rhythms.
