Microsoft: Windows 11 well-loved, adopted twice as quickly as Windows 10

26 January 2022
Windows 10 and 11 now power over 1.4 billion monthly active devices.

Sort by:

I like windows 11 more than I did the ones before it. And yes, I liked windows 8.1 way more than I did the windows 7 some of you won't let us rest for.

The thing is that majority of people hate change just for the sake of it. Most are so afraid of change that they'd rather nothing changes in anything they're already familiar with. You hear them say "… unless it's broken" as if most of the advancements they're enjoying today are as a result of broken ones. If we wait till things are broken, we'd not be where we are today.

    unxpctd, 27 Jan 2022I don't believe any of the windows 11 praise. It is a ... moreYou forgot to add "for me" or "IMO": it's a terrible experience, FOR YOU; it has been going downhill, IN YOUR OPINION.

    You've been heard!

Go ahead and tell how you deduced that he's speaking for all from his comment. I doubt anyone cares what kinda user you are—you could be a "supernatural" user, and that wouldn't make any difference.

              Windows 11 is alright and tries to move away from legacy stuff, but it's riddled with absolutely idiotic design decisions and removal of cool and useful stuff that we had in the past already.

                  I want to roll back to win 10 or even 7 cuz for no reason it eats 4 gb from my 8gb during startup and also to solve I even uninstalled by antivirus also i don't download cracks 11 still needs optimization for amd chips

                    I never liked W10, too much legacy baggage. That's why I ran with KDE distros for years, but while still flawed, W11 is much more polished. Specially if you got a 2 in 1. I still had to registry edit the taskbar on top and the full right click menu. Also got to get a 3rd party program for automatic light/night theme but other than that, smooth sailing for my workload and a lil game here and there.

                      My experience with 11 is good so far. Nice and smooth. Felt like good time to swap from 7.

                        What smoke is Microsoft cooking?? 🤨 Even I haven't upgrade to Windows 11. I'll wait for more months before I upgrade.

                          Perfectly content with 7 and XP.

                            I don't believe any of the windows 11 praise. It is a terrible OS. Ever since seven things have been rolling downhill.

                              I upgraded as soon as it was available. Compared to windows 10, it is a very quick update. In addition, compared to the bugs I had with 10, there has been no issues for me. I love the focus it has put towards multi-tasking and it has been very helpful. I recommend it.

                                I refuse to believe windows 11 has a better rating than the legendary windows XP

                                My god Xp was a god level OS

                                    Anonymous, 26 Jan 2022Preferring how something looks way more over how it works i... moreI didn't use windows 11 so I don't know how much reliable is. I only see it from pictures online, so I have an opinion only on how it looks. That is why I asked of it is good to upgrade. And I will upgrade it no matter what others said. If it is so tragic as others think, then i will reinstall back windows 10.
