On Steam, Windows 11 is progressing slowly but still remains far from its predecessor.
In the world of PC gaming, it is indeed Windows 10 that largely dominates the debates.
Windows 11 is progressing… Windows 10 too
The latest statistics shared by the Steam platform provide an overview of the operating systems favored by PC gamers. While Windows 11 is destined to progress over the months/years, Microsoft’s latest OS has yet to reach the 20% adoption mark, with a percentage of 19.59% – a rise of 0.65%, however. .
It is obviously Windows 10 which dominates the debates, the latter winning a market share of 73.89% very precisely, with the added bonus of a slight increase of 0.34%. In total, 96.68% of Steam players play on a Windows environment. Note that Windows 7 is still in the race, but with only 2.41%, against 0.53% for Windows 8.
As for other OSes, Steam estimates users on MacOS at 2.20%, including 0.85% on version 12.3.1. Linux is also part of the party, with however a market share of 1.12%, down very slightly.

- Graphical redesign of the successful interface
- Improved snap
- Effective anchor groups
To be completely honest, Windows 11 seems to us to be a good evolution of Windows 10. Beyond the very marketing aspect linked to the surprise effect (Windows 10 was presented as the last of the last, remember) and to the essentially graphical redesign of the interface, the update brings a bit of clarity and modernity that are welcome after six years spent with an OS designed to reconcile Microsoft and its audience. We also like the discreet details that make it more functional, such as the improved snap and anchor groups, or even the refined management of virtual desktops. Finally, we are really convinced by the redesign of the Microsoft Store. By agreeing to return to the exclusivity reserved for UWPs, Microsoft is effectively hitting where it is not expected and finally compels itself to catch up on Apple and Google.
