After 4 years, Windows 11 finally beats Windows 10

It’s been four years since Microsoft launched Windows 11 and let’s be real – it wasn’t exactly love at first install. The rollout was rocky, thanks to bugs, weird hardware requirements and the TPM 2.0 chip, a hardware-based security chip that many older PCs just didn’t have. And this means, for a lot of users, upgrading meant buying a whole new computer. So yeah, not a great start.But fast forward to today and the tide has finally turned. Windows 11 has officially overtaken Windows 10 as the most-used version of Windows worldwide.According to the latest numbers, 52% of Windows users are now on Windows 11, while 44.59% are still hanging on to Windows 10. Just six months ago, that gap was flipped – Windows 11 was sitting at 35% and Windows 10 was still dominating with 62%.
What changed? Well, Microsoft finally putting an end date on Windows 10 support – October 2025 – definitely lit a fire under some users. On top of that, the new Windows Backup for Organizations tool helped smooth things out for businesses, making mass upgrades to Windows 11 less of a logistical nightmare. For companies juggling dozens (or hundreds) of machines, that was probably the tipping point.

Are you using Windows 11 because you want to or because you have to?
