Microsoft announced back in October that Windows 10 had surpassed 110 million installations worldwide, which for October was an impressive achievement. But that was over 3 months ago, and since 2015 is coming to a close, we thought now was probably a good time to check in on that install count. Last time I checked, 120 million was the number.
According to my contacts, Windows 10 has now been installed on over 200 million devices worldwide...

Wow have read the whole thread and that is very good.
40 million a month hope they keep it up.
Well .. I DON'T! Because ... they're getting there by tricking Win7 and Win8 folks into applying an Upgrade they do not want.Wow have read the whole thread and that is very good.

The Win7 blog and OEM blog are chock full of folks complaining about HOW to get rid of Win10 and go back to their older OS -- because they did what they thought was a routine update only to have their machine upgraded to Win10.
This is reprehensible conduct by MS -- and I don't care if millions of folks like Win10, this is STILL reprehensible conduct.

I'm not sure how MS is at fault, when if the user readwhat the update was for, it clearly states "Upgrade to Windows 10".
Upgrade to Windows 10 Update - Enable or Disable in Windows 7 or 8.1
Brink you are correct they don't have to but some ignore that and then blame Microsoft, on every system I have put it on.I'm not sure how MS is at fault, when if the user readwhat the update was for, it clearly states "Upgrade to Windows 10".

That message has always come up
200 million is an impressive number, but still doesn't come close to Windows 7.
Bout a million of those were done by me!!!
(Feels like it, anyway!)
Hahahahahaha! At least, Edwin! At least.Bout a million of those were done by me!!!
(Feels like it, anyway!)
Seems like I've done at least 100,000 myself.
Some say that Microsoft tricked a lot of users into 10. But it is not their fault if many people do not pay attention.
Hmmm Brink, you know there are TONS of people that don't really watch what they're clicking. Microsoft is definitely taking advantage of that. Truth is, objectively, Windows 10 is a luke-warm success. Mobile Devices are where it's at, and Microsoft just isn't there like it should have been. I prefer Windows based PCs myself, but I say that understanding I'm in the ever increasing minority. A lot of the new user base is there because of a free upgrade, some curiosity, and for no other reason. XP was a real success. Windows 95 was a blockbuster success, and I'd say Windows 7 is top of mind for most (er, that's when Windows is still top of mind).I'm not sure how MS is at fault, when if the user readwhat the update was for, it clearly states "Upgrade to Windows 10".
