Windows 10 is reportedly installed on over 200 million devices
Without accounting for a declining rate of installations, this equates to an estimated 40 million installs every month. Microsoft aims to reach one billion installs within three years of Windows 10’s availability, which is still probable if the installation rate doesn’t heavily drop. This isn't likely to be the case however, when Windows 10 is no longer offered as a free upgrade to Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 users during July of 2016.
Currently we are unsure whether this figure includes installs on Windows 10 Mobile devices and Xbox One consoles, which can now be upgraded to a reworked dashboard built on the Windows 10 kernel. When Microsoft next reports official figures for Windows 10 installations, this will give us a better estimate of whether Microsoft is still likely to meet their goal of 1 billion installations in 2018.

Windows 7 is my favorite, There is a lot of worrying things in the service agreement that people need to be aware of.
"Microsoft's Windows 10 service agreement stretches to 12,000 words, but one part of it has worried users over the safety of their data.
One excerpt worryingly tells users that "we will access, disclose and preserve personal data", including the contents of emails or files in private folders.
They add that they will do this when they need to comply with law enforcement, prevent spam, maintain the security of their networks, or protect their rights or property."
