I dare say, that 90% of all companies in Europe and US, use Windows. And lots of companies relies heavily on software built 20-30 years ago. Microsoft knows this.

That's why they are very reluctant to "touch that piece of code from a quarter century ago" because there's probably a lot of software that would break without it. Software their target audience need.
