WINDOWS 7 MARKET SHARE SKYROCKETS WHILE WINDOWS 11 STAGNATES

The recent [significant surge phenomenon]
in Windows 7’s popularity
seems to be directly linked to following key factors:
- the termination of mainstream support for Windows 10
[which has driven users away from upgrading further] - the widespread dissatisfaction many users have expressed regarding Windows 11
[a substantial number of users are clearly opting against Windows 11
due to its intrusive telemetry services and vague interface innovations]
As a result, these users have flocked back to Windows 7, viewing on it as a stable,
time-tested alternative free from constant irksome updates and excessive data collection practices.
Additionally, Windows 7 [continues to receive security patches]
[until January 2026],
enhancing it’s appeal among those seeking reliable software solutions.
- performs outstandingly good [even on properly selected modern hardware]
- remains light on system resources [compared to newer operating systems]
- has no problems with [modern web compatibility] [at all]
These advantages make Windows 7 a compelling choice for thinking consumers
who value stability over cutting-edge technology bloated with telemetry.
