Windows 10 already installed over 75 million people

And yet the freebie creates amazing things with people. It cost Microsoft to announce that the transition to the new version of the Windows operating system can be done for free, and millions of users rushed to download it. Today, the corporate vice president of the Windows division, Yusuf Mehdi, shared his unparalleled joy in a personal twitter: Windows 10 downloaded and installed more than 75 million people.

For this, Windows 10 took only one month. For comparison: the previous Microsoft operating system at number 8 gained 100 million users in six months. Mehdi also added that under the management of "dozens" more than 90,000 different models of personal computers and tablets are currently operating. And the owners of Xbox One gaming consoles have already made a total of 122 years of gameplay on their home computers thanks to the built-in Windows 10 connectivity with the console.

It seems that the regular messages that Windows 10 monitors its users, did not scare anyone. In the operating system, the “keylogger” is enabled by default, recording everything that the user is typing on the keyboard and sending this data to Microsoft. Not so long ago, inquisitive people discovered another shocking detail: as it turned out, the OS periodically sends screenshots of your desktop to Microsoft. And the point here is not even in violation of confidentiality, but in the fact that it may well spend the Internet traffic, the number of which some people are strictly limited.

Whatever it was, but the launch of Windows 10 can be considered a major victory for the Redmond corporation. Successes are noted even in the work of the Windows 10 Store application store. The number of downloads has increased six times with the release of the operating system. We remind you that Microsoft wrote a special software that allows developers from around the world to port their applications from iOS and Android under Windows 10 with minimal effort and time. This caused a sharp expansion of the range of applications in the store, as everyone rushed to release their games and software for the new operating system.
