Microsoft is “worried” for those who keep Windows 7 – Numerama

According to Microsoft’s marketing director, continue to use Windows 7 would be potentially dangerous to the health of the computer.

Everything is good to convince users to migrate to Windows 10 and his indiscretions and future additional advertising services, even the FUD? As reported Clubic, Microsoft’s marketing director, Chris Capossela, was recently a guest on a podcast Windows Weekly, in which he warned that Windows 7 users should now use this version “ their own peril “, while Windows 10 would be safe.

Windows 7 support with security updates is provided in principle until 2020, which means that there is no particular reason to worry about the security of the OS, at least not more than with Windows 8 or Windows 10.

Not to mention viruses and security problems

We are very concerned when people use an operating system 10 years old and with which they will buy the next printer will not work not very well “, he has explained, while Windows 7 will be ten years old in October 2019.” We encourage our software and hardware partners to design great new things by taking maximum advantage of Windows 10 but immediately make old products really bad in comparison, and that’s not to mention the viruses and security problems . “

15 years after its release, Windows XP remains installed on over 10% of PC. And seven years after its release, Windows 7 is still the majority of the operating system on computers, with 55.6% market share, more than all others combined Windows.
