PC gamers still prefer Windows 10 over Windows 11

Windows 11 saw a decline in the latest Steam hardware and software survey for July 2024. According to Valve’s data, gamers using Microsoft’s newer operating system dropped below the 46% threshold. Currently, Windows 11 accounts for approximately 45.81% of all Windows users on Steam, marking a decrease of 0.82% from the previous month.

In contrast, Windows 10 experienced an increase of 0.74%, reaching a 50.16% share. Although gaming performance is generally similar on both operating systems, a recent test by Hardware Unboxed reveals that Windows 10 may offer better performance in certain titles due to the core isolation feature, where memory integrity is enabled by default on Windows 11.

Microsoft is expected to stop providing technical support, security updates, and feature updates for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025. Windows 11 will likely overtake Windows 10 long before that happens.

Despite Valve’s discontinuation of support for Steam on Windows 7 and 8/8.1, the client still functions on these older operating systems, allowing them to maintain a minor presence on the platform.

The report indicates that 0.41% of all Windows users on Steam are on 64-bit Windows 7, showing a slight increase of 0.01%, while 0.08% are on 64-bit Windows 8.1. Linux holds a 2.08% share, and macOS users represent 1.37%, reflecting a minor increase of 0.06 %. The most popular Linux distributions on Steam are Arch Linux (0.17%), Linux Mint 21.3 (0.11%), and Ubuntu 22.04 (0.08%).

In terms of GPUs, Nvidia maintains a strong position with its RTX 3060 leading the charts with a 5.71% share, followed by the GTX 1650 at 3.88% and the RTX 3060 Ti at 3.47%. Nvidia is reportedly discontinuing the RTX 3060, as board partners have been informed that the upcoming order will be the last for this model.

While Nvidia hasn’t officially confirmed the discontinuation, it seems logical given the card’s 2021 release date and declining sales amid newer alternatives. It is expected that the RTX 4060 will soon take its place, considering the card is now the fifth-most-popular GPU on the list.

Windows 11 to let you use your phone as a webcam
Using an Android phone as a webcam.

The Windows 11 update 24H2 includes a new feature called Connected Camera that lets you turn your smartphone into a webcam. The folks at PCWorld have tested the feature out, and it looks pretty easy to use, though you do need to have an Android phone to use it.

Using your phone as a webcam -- either for your desktop or your laptop -- isn't new, but native support for it has been patchy. At first, people had to use third-party apps to do the job. Then Apple users got Continuity Camera, and a few years later Android 14 users got a similar feature, too.

Windows 11 24H2 may crash your PC if you have a certain SSD
The blue screen of death in Windows.

Microsoft's Windows 11 2024 Update, more commonly referred to as 24H2, is here, but it's not without issues. Reports from disgruntled users have flooded various forums, talking about constant blue screens of death (BSOD) that have appeared since they updated to the latest version of Windows. Although Microsoft has yet to officially acknowledge the problem, the users seem to have pinpointed the cause of it, and even found a workaround.

So far, it looks like these crashes are fairly limited in scope, as they seem to happen if you have one of a few Western Digital SSD models. Other SSD vendors appear unaffected so far. As reported on the WD Community Forums, users are getting BSODs with the error "critical process has died" ever since they updated to the 24H2 update.

Microsoft is fixing my biggest problem with Windows 11 on handhelds
Asus ROG Ally with the Windows lock screen.

We're finally starting to make some progress on the handheld experience of Windows 11. Although Windows 11 handhelds like the ROG Ally X are some of the best handheld gaming PCs you can buy, that's despite their use of Windows, not because of it. Now, the latest Windows 11 Insider preview (build 22631.4387) adds a feature that should make navigating the OS much easier on a handheld -- a keyboard built for gamepads.

Windows has included an onscreen keyboard for years, and updates over the last couple of years have even made it usable with touch inputs. On a handheld, however, there are two problems with the keyboard. You can't invoke it naturally -- you have to bind Windows + Ctrl + O to a hotkey -- and you can't use your controller to navigate it. With the new update, Microsoft is fixing that last point, at the very least.
