Windows 10 is making up almost 10 % of desktop OS market share

A report released today claims that Windows 10 has a 9.96 per cent share of the desktop OS market. The report from Net Applications explains that there has been a steady adoption rate since Windows 10 was made available and mostly for free in July 2015. Windows 10 is famously used on all devices ranging from PC sticks to smartphones, tablets, 2-in-1's, Ultrabooks, notebooks, desktops, the Xbox One, Hololens and even the large Surface Hub.

Windows 7 is still the dominant OS as per the report, with a 55.68 per cent share, Windows XP still has 10.93 per cent market share and Windows 8.1 owns 10.30 per cent share. Windows 10 is installed on 200 million devices and is on track to get 1 billion installs in three years, a target Microsoft announced during the OS's launch.
