According to the statistics on the market share of each version of Windows 10 released by AdDuplex at the end of March, the 1909 version will stop supporting the market share of 18.4% this time.

The 1809 version has a market share of 1.2%, and the 1803 version has a market share of 1.4%. The market share of the three versions is about 20%.

In addition, the Windows 10 1903 version, which has been discontinued in the past few months, also has a market share of 4.6%.

For most users, if the operating system is not updated, in addition to fear that the system will have a lot of size errors and unstable crashes, there are also a small number of people who do not know that the operating system needs to be updated.

In addition, even after the technical support of the operating system expires, the computer can still be used, so there is not such an urgent need to upgrade.

However, Microsoft reminds that because after the technical support expires, you can no longer receive security and quality updates, which will increase the security risk and the risk of viruses.

For personal information security and risk reduction, users are advised to check the Windows 10 operating system version and upgrade to the latest version as soon as possible.
