Windows 11 is lagging behind Windows 10
Despite all the improvements being made by Windows 11 to create a more attractive ecosystem, the reality is that Windows 10 still represents almost 70% of global Windows traffic, which is almost three times the modest 26% of users who have moved to Windows 11. For this reason, Microsoft is continuing to release improvements in Windows 11 that encourage hundreds of millions of users to switch from Windows 10.However, there is an underlying problem with having so many users on Windows 10 currently. In less than a year and a half, specifically in October 2025, support for Windows 10 will cease, or at least, it will no longer be free. This puts hundreds of millions of computers in a difficult situation where users will not be able to upgrade to Windows 11 because they do not meet the hardware requirements, even if they want to. Therefore, Microsoft's challenge to gain momentum for Windows 11 before that date is a race against time, as many users will no longer have the company's support.
