Microsoft's Windows 11 is finally gaining significant traction in the market, nearly three years after its initial release. According to recent data from Statcounter, Windows 11 reached an all-time high market share of 35.55 percent in October 2024 – an increase of 2.13 percentage points from the previous month.
This acceleration is a notable shift from the sluggish growth of the past year. In October 2023, Windows 11 held just 26.17 percent of the market share, with minimal month-to-month changes and even occasional declines. The recent surge suggests that users are increasingly embracing Microsoft's latest operating system.
