Despite StatCounter’s optimism for Microsoft’s latest OS, Windows 10 still can’t manage to bump Windows 7 from its top spot. Assuming the analyst firm’s data is even accurate, W10 should finally pass W7 next month, but rival NetMarketShare’s numbers suggest that the battle will continue for a bit longer.
The difference between the two operating systems is now truly minuscule. In the final month of 2017, Windows 10 grew by 0.33 percentage points, to give it 41.69 percent share. In the same month, Windows 7 fell 0.62 percentage points, putting it a whisker ahead on 41.89 percent. It seems very, very likely the new OS will finally come out on top next month, unless Windows 7 suddenly gains some unexpected share from somewhere.
