Over the past two years, Windows 10 has been installed on 100 million devices every six months. The achieved level of 1 billion users is notable for the fact that Microsoft initially planned to get such a result in two or three years. A year later, the company realized that Windows 10 Mobile had failed, and the goal had to be put off. Windows 10 was released in July 2015. Thus, it took the company more than double the planned time to reach today's number of users.
In January, Microsoft stopped supporting Windows 7. Now it's just a matter of time before another 500 million devices will run on Windows 10. Moreover, having failed to conquer the mobile market, Microsoft has relied on dual-screen devices. In October, the company announced Windows 10X, a new version of Windows 10 designed for dual-screen PCs. The company also introduced a dual-screen Surface Neo tablet running Windows 10X.
