Please Stop using statcounter as a reliable source. Their numbers are absolutely wack.
Look at the recent surge in win7 pcs, that no economical data can back up, if you look at win7 stats of some countries you will find some weird spikes that died out this last month. why go from an os that has lost security updates to an older os that today’s software can’t run on anymore

Even worse, those stats are also probably just a leftover from a giant spike coming from Singapore around that time: Image
That one eventually got cleaned up, although a lot of the spillover into other countries remains.
I did some math at the time, and it must’ve been about 1000 fake machines for every real one. And considering this was kept online for several weeks despite making news: Yes, stop using statcounter.
