The “death” of Windows 7 has sparked a wave of upgrades. Microsoft is happy with the transition to Windows 10

Microsoft does not provide exact statistics. However, the company is clearly pleased with the speed of users’ transition from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Moreover, Microsoft expects the trend to continue in 2021. 

Microsoft ended support for the Windows 7 operating system a year ago on January 14, 2020. Nevertheless,  millions of people continue to use this OS, despite the risks and security threats. At the time of the end of support, Windows 7 was used on about 1 computer in 4 in the world, and by January 2021, more than 1 in 10. 

Moving from Windows 7 to Windows 10 is still free – Microsoft continues to turn a blind eye to a loophole that has been working for years.
