New Data Shows Windows 32-Bit Is Becoming a Thing of the Past
The world is slowly but surely leaving the 32-bit versions of Windows behind, as new data shows almost everybody is now on 64-bit.

The latest figures shared by Valve for its Steam gaming platform show that only a handful of users are still running Windows 32-bit, with the 64-bit editions obviously dominating the charts.

More specifically, Windows 10 64-bit is the top choice for Steam gamers, as this OS version secured the leading place for another month with a share of over 89 percent.
The almost-ancient Windows 7 64-bit is the runner-up with 3.89 percent, while the recently-released Windows 11 64-bit is now third with 1.82 percent.

Windows 11 gaining pace
The other good news in this report concerns Windows 11, as the new operating system has already reached a share of 1.82 percent in just a single month.

Most likely, however, it’s all just a matter of time until Windows 11 becomes the top name in the charts, especially as Microsoft continues the rollout. The company wants to bring Windows 11 to all eligible devices by the summer of 2022.

“New eligible devices will be offered the upgrade first. The upgrade will then roll out over time to in-market devices based on intelligence models that consider hardware eligibility, reliability metrics, age of device and other factors that impact the upgrade experience. We expect all eligible devices to be offered the free upgrade to Windows 11 by mid-2022,” Microsoft explained in the original Windows 11 announcement.
