Despite Microsoft’s increasingly aggressive tactics, Windows 10’s growth continues to slow

T-Mobile appears to be emerging from its Microsoft-aided Windows 10 Mobile debacle with a new Windows 10 Mobile smartphone offering.

Windows 10 was installed on over 75 million PCs in its first four weeks, and passed 110 million after 10 weeks. In the meantime Windows 10 is indeed making its way onto more devices, mainly thanks to the free upgrade offer, which has stirred a debate about the aggressiveness with which it is pushed to users. Both the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950XL have been ripped to shreds by critics, and much of the problem lies with Windows 10 Mobile, an operating system that feels unfinished.

Windows Vista managed to gain 0.01 points to 1.62 percent and Windows XP also somehow rebounded 0.34 points to 10.93 percent. Whats the market share of Xbox?

For those who own a Lumia 950 or 950 XL device, to check whether their handsets are getting the new Windows 10 mobile build, they can head over to Settings Update & security Phone update Check for updates.

On a recent Windows Weekly podcast, Microsoft‘s chief marketing officer (CMO), Chris Capossela, admitted that the current Windows phones are not going to cut it when the smartphone market is filled with iPhones and Android phones. With just three percent of the market share globally, the “Windows” OS for smartphones is losing big-time to Apple Inc.’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) mighty “iPhones” and “iOS” and smartphones running on Alphabet Inc’s (NASDAQ:GOOG) “Android” OS. The Windows 10 user share increase last month was slightly less than the month before, continuing a trend of slowing growth. Let’s take a quick look back at the most important Windows 10 Mobile stories during the week of December 27th to January 3rd in a special feature we like to call “Windows 10 Mobile news recap”.

But there are a bunch of other things Windows 10 still needs in addition to just increasing the sheer number of users. It already has a mechanism for selling apps, but these days mobile devices also need to be able to help make in-store and online payments. Microsoft noted that its commercial cloud revenue was, at that time, on an annual run rate of $6.3 billion.
