Windows 11 has stalled: the most popular version of Windows in 2024 has been named

As of November 2024, Windows 11's market share fell to 34.94% from 35.58% in October. This follows from the Statcounter report.

Windows 10, on the other hand, increased its dominance accordingly: its share in November 2024 was 61.82% instead of 60.95% in October. Overall, 10 and 11 account for 96.76%.

In terms of year-on-year growth, Windows 11 increased its market share from 26.63% in November 2023 to 34.94% in November 2024 (+8.31). Windows 10 lost only 6.19% in popularity during this period.

          Distribution of shares of different versions of Windows in the world

The distribution of Windows in Ukraine provides slightly different figures. For example, the share of Windows 10 in November was 66.36%, while only 28.84% of Ukrainians upgraded to Windows 11. At the same time, the share of the “old” Windows 7 is 3.81% compared to the “world” 2.47%.

With the end of support for Windows 10 coming in a little over ten months, its market share exceeding 60% looks quite alarming, writes the Neowin portal. To accelerate the transition to its current OC, Microsoft has launched full-screen notifications advertising various aspects of Windows 11 and Copilot+ PCs.

Microsoft understands that not everyone can upgrade to Windows 11 right now, so those who want to stay in the “top ten” will have the opportunity to continue receiving security updates through the Extended Security Updates subscription, which costs $ 30 (~ 1200 UAH) per year. Such a subscription can only be purchased for one year without the possibility of further extension.

Meanwhile, journalists note that with the fall update 24H2, Windows 11 has essentially become Windows 12. Microsoft has changed its business model, and instead of a three-year Windows development cycle, it has prioritized the concept of “Windows as a service”, hiding a new operating system behind a major update.
