StatCounter: Win10’s market share is only 1% ahead of Win11, and will be surpassed

Passionategeekz June 19th news, Windows 11 Microsoft has been facing a push since its launch Windows 10 The arduous task of user upgrade. With Windows 10 coming soon to discontinue support in October 2025, Microsoft is going all out to push users to move to Windows 11. Although Windows 10 has been higher than Windows 11 for a long time, this lead has gradually narrowed over the past few months.

According to the latest StatCounter statistics, Windows 10’s market share leadership has narrowed to just slightly above 1%. If this trend continues, Windows 11 is expected to become Microsoft’s most widely used operating system.

Looking back at the situation in June last year, Windows 10 accounted for 66% of Microsoft’s Windows operating system market share, while Windows 11 accounted for less than 30%. However, over the past year, the market share of the two has gradually approached, with Windows 10 users constantly migrating to Windows 11. A recent StatCounter update showed that Windows 10 had a market share of 48.92%, while Windows 11 had a market share of 47.73%.

So, what caused users to suddenly turn to Windows 11? The most obvious reason is that Windows 10 will be out of support in October. Given that Microsoft keeps warnings through social media and the Windows 10 system itself, users may have avoided losing support by purchasing a new computer, upgrading an old device, or forcing Windows 11 directly on the old hardware.

According to Passionategeekz, for those who still stick to Windows 10, Microsoft is adding a PC migration tool to help users transfer data to new computers. However, even with these convenient tools, some users may not upgrade because their system does not support Windows 11, or they think Windows 11 is not good. Although Windows 10 may be surpassed, it will take years to completely exit the market.
