“For those looking to adopt Windows 11, the first step is to assess which of their existing devices are capable of upgrading.” “This situation will likely continue in the future unless businesses are given a compelling reason to upgrade,” said Decneut. “Many organisations have been put off from having to buy new machines that meet these conditions, while others are simply happy with the current existence of Windows 10 which continues to be supported until 2025,” Decneut added.

“Although the rate of adoption is increasing bit by bit, it’s obvious that Windows 11 upgrades aren’t going as fast as Microsoft had hoped, especially within the business environment,” noted Roel Decneut, chief strategy officer at Lansweeper. Lansweeper’s updated results also found that the number of machines running End of Life Operating Systems has fallen to 6.6 percent compared to 9.75 percent in January 2022.Ī significant portion of these are running Windows XP and Windows 7.

Indeed, while the majority of Microsoft devices scanned passed the RAM test (91 percent), only about half of the workstation TPMs (Trusted Platform Module) tested met the requirements. Well, Lansweeper’s data four months ago provided an answer to this, when it revealed that 55 percent of devices scanned are not capable of being upgraded to Windows 11. So why is adoption of Windows 11 so slow? Lansweeper surveyed more than 10 million Microsoft devices to compile its uptake data.

Indeed, the Lansweeper survey confirmed that while the Windows 11 adoption rate has almost tripled over the past three months, uptake has remained slow. Windows Vista ( remember that OS?) is sitting at a very lowly 0.04 percent. This means that six months since Windows 11’s arrival, Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 all remain remain more popular, relegating Windows 11 to fifth place.
