Over the past ten years, Microsoft's operating system has lost 20% of its users. This is confirmed by a statistical study from StockApps.
In 2013, 90.96% of PC owners used Windows, while now the figure is at around 73.72%. Statistics show that Microsoft's share in this segment fell by more than 17 points. On average, this is 2% per year.
According to StockApps financial expert Edith Reeds, the aggravation of competition in connection with the release of alternatives in the form of other operating systems is to blame. Operating systems from third-party developers are open source, they also have increased performance and improved security.
According to the data, Apple increased its own market presence over this period from 7.95% to 15.33% (an increase from January 2013 to December 2021 was 93%). The occupied market share of Chrome OS at the same time increased from an insignificant 0.01% to a very solid 6.68%. The popularity of other open source operating systems is also growing.
