Windows 10 is an operating system developed and released by Microsoft. It was released in 2015 and has received ongoing updates since then. It received positive reviews upon release, with critics praising its desktop-oriented interface, improvements to bundled software, and the functionality of the Cortana personal assistant and Microsoft Edge. However, there have been criticisms of the mandatory update installation, privacy concerns, and adware-like tactics used to promote the operating system. Microsoft initially aimed to have Windows 10 installed on one billion devices within three years of its release and achieved that goal in 2020. As of 2022, it is estimated to have a 72% share of the Windows PC market and a 22% share of all devices. Windows 10 is the final version of Windows that supports 32-bit processors and devices with BIOS firmware, and its successor, Windows 11, requires devices with UEFI firmware and 64-bit processors.
