Microsoft is all set to introduce its Copilot, a generative AI-powered personal assistant, to Windows 10 users after introducing it to the Windows 11 users. As per the reports, there are over 1 billion Windows 10 users and by offering the Copilot, Microsoft is planning to gain more popularity.
This upgrade, according to reports, would add a Copilot button to the Windows 10 taskbar, providing a feature comparable to Windows 11's Copilot sidebar. Additionally, there will be plugins compatible with both operating systems included in the Windows 10 Copilot upgrade.
Further the reports suggest that Windows 11 has about 400 million active devices each month compared to Windows 10's 1 billion, the move is seen as a calculated attempt to expand market share. Microsoft hopes to reach an extra 1 billion users by bringing Copilot to Windows 10, which presents an unexplored market for Copilot expansion.
According to the report, Copilot's features and experience will be comparable on Windows 10 and Windows 11, and plugin compatibility will guarantee a flawless user experience. Microsoft sees this as a logical step towards opening up Copilot to a wider user base.
