Microsoft Can't Watch for Windows 7 to Die
نوشته شده توسط : jiajiasnow

Windows 7 will get to the end of support in January 2020, with left than Twelve months of updates left, Microsoft has already been planning for a world without this OS version.

And while the transition will undoubtedly be a difficult moment for Microsoft and its customers, the software giant has every reason to be optimistic, because it expects the death of Windows 7 to develop a significant boost in the number of upgrades to Windows 10.

Talking to TechRadar, Mark Linton, GM of OEM Portfolio and Product Management for Microsoft, said the company anticipates the end of support for Windows 7 would help not just boost the adoption of Windows 10, but additionally increase PC shipments.

"The second Windows XP"

Gartner the 2009 week says within the fourth quarter of 2018, PC shipments declined once more, blaming the CPU shortage among the reasons.

"There are a few factors here. Innovation in silicon, innovation in graphics [and] Windows 10 momentum in terms of the install base. Windows 7 is going end of support in a year, and thus customers are looking to action to take sure they get updated and so forth," Linton said.

"Each silicon generation, things get thinner and battery life. Again, I often compare it to that particular Windows 7 machine [that] is six or seven years of age, when compared with what you're getting now, it blows the mind. Windows 7 support is a big one that we see customers thinking about, you know, 'I wish to upgrade to Windows 10, in order to get updates.' And, just overall, excitement has returned within the PC," he continued.

There's no doubt the demise of Windows 7 will translate to more upgrades to Windows 10, but as I explained recently, the 2009 operating system is very prone to end up being the second Windows XP.

Using more than 35% share of the market right now, Windows 7 is losing ground in a rather slow pace, so there's a chance that by the time the January 2020 milestone is reached, only a few users would upgrade to Windows 10.

Time will tell how Microsoft handles the retirement of Windows 7, but for now, the organization seems very optimistic about this. No matter what happens, Windows 10 will be the first one to take advantage of this milestone.
