Windows 10: The June Browser Numbers are In!

And now we have the browser numbers for June 2016.

#1 Chrome clocks in at 48.65%, boosting its lead over Explorer for the second month in a row. Chrome now leads Explorer by 17%, gaining a whopping 5.08% since last month. Folks, there is more than one explanation, but the quiet growth of Chromebooks is one of them. A frightened Microsoft is quietly helping manufacturers get lower-cost Windows laptops out there in order to compete.

At 5.09%, Edge is not even close to being the #1 choice of Windows 10 users. Its .91% growth, however, is still better than Explorer’s, Firefox’s, Safari’s, and Opera’s declines. And I predict that as new machines have Edge as their default browser, its market share will grow.

What are the numbers in parentheses beside apps in Task Manager? And what do they mean?

It means there are two components to that item

So like if you have Google Chrome (14) then its using 14 components.

What are the numbers in parentheses beside apps in Task Manager? And what do they mean?

About a year ago I noticed that whenever I click "more details" at the bottom of Task Manager, I noticed that these numbers in parentheses show up beside the open apps that weren't there before; an example would be: Google Chrome (11) or Battle.Net App (5).
What purpose do these numbers serve? They only started turning up about a year ago and I've had this computer for four years now.

P.S I know this question doesn't fit in this category but I cannot find a category suitable for this question.

 

What devices?

Desktops/Laptops, Tablets, Phones, all of these?

 

Valid question, Paul. The numbers include desktops and laptops, but not phones and tablets. I cannot find out if the numbers include Chromebooks.

An older definition of "Computer" is a device with input, output, memory, and a CPU. Under that definition, smartphones, tablets, and even some printers are computers. A newer definition excludes mobile devices, whose primary purpose is to communicate. Obviously, there are overlaps.

 

This is how I see it for the past month.

 

Those figures look more realistic John.

 

Internet Explorer at 8.28%?

I find that rather hard to believe. A good idea, perhaps, but rather hard to believe.

 

Any way you can get similar for 6 months ago?

Interesting to see how browser usage on here has changed in the last 6 months

 

Here is December - it's pretty much the same.

 

Thanks for the information John.

 

Cheers John

Interesting to see how its changed

 

Very interesting lets hope once new upgrade done Edge will move up one place or even get top spot

 

Just out of curiosity. Why would it matter what rank a browser has? To me the only thing that matters is that my browser does what I need and that I feel comfortable using it. Even though Edge has come a long way since the day it was first released I still prefer Pale Moon/Firefox.
