Report: Windows 10 surpasses Windows 7 in installs

DateWednesday, January 2, 2019 at 6:05PM

Net Market Share's latest report states that Windows 10 has finally surpassed Windows 7 in terms of installs. The report says that as of December 2018, Windows 10 now has a usage share of 39.22%, beating Windows 7’s 36.90% usage share.

While this is good news for Microsoft, which has been wanting its user base to upgrade to the latest and greatest OS, moving the needle forward will be challenging since the majority of Windows 7 installs are coporate on enterprise accounts. Windows 10 has been going on two major upgrades a year and while the recent upgrades may have been minor, the company is likely focusing on making Windows 10 more fluid for use in various form factors.
