XP, W8.1 & W10 up, W7 down

[lehnerus2000]

I was expecting W10 to overtake W8.1 early this year.

W7 lost market share.
XP, W8.1, W10, OS X 10.11 & Other increased their market shares.

Data from NetMarketShare​

When I see XP going up, I have to question their methodology.

XP VMs?

When I see XP going up, I have to question their methodology.

Maybe people are building XP VMs for stuff that won't work in W10?

Weird.
I had to repost the graph.

Not bad for 6 months after release though past x-p and 8.1

I wonder what the numbers would have been had 10 been not free or "accidentally" upgraded on peoples' PCs?

 

[ThrashZone]

Yea nobody subtracts for people that revert back to the prior os or just completely invalidate a os as illegal
Not the numbers they are looking for

The operating systems shown were sold operating system except W-10.

Now shows us how many W-10 were sold.
That would be apple to apples not apples to pantyhose.

W10 take-up continues to look disappointing given the fact that it's free, extensively marketed, and increasingly pushed on people. Add in the fact that not all those who dropped W7 did so for W10 and it's clear that MS have a very long way to go.

And of course, the amount of people who reverted back from 10 to whatever. I'm sure those numbers aren't factored in

MS is like the government - they lie when they open their mouth.

I wonder if they count people who run it in a VM. I've been running it that way since Oct 2014. They never bug me to install 10 so maybe they assume I've already got it !
I play around with it for about an hour a week and am always glad to get back to W7

Yeah, that must be it. I was always wondering why I never got bugged. But I am "running" W10 in VM. In reality I am not doing much with it.

Sorry the graph seems to have vanished again.
I guess the Admins are purging it.

Maybe it's an issue with the latest version of PaleMoon.

I can see ThrashZone's graph, but I can't see the graph I posted in Post #1 (only the site link).

It has also vanished from my profile's Attachments list.
