Well, just about: According to the latest AdDuplex report, Windows 10 version 20H2 now accounts for 29.9 percent of all Windows 10 PCs out in the world.
“[Windows 10 version 20H2] is now on almost 30 percent of PCs surveyed,” AdDuplex reported this morning, based on a survey of almost 80,000 Windows 10 PCs. “And a good sign is that it’s not growing at the expense of 2004, but rather older releases.”

Windows 10 version 20H2 added almost 10 percentage points to its usage share in March when compared to the month before, when it accounted for 20 percent usage share. But as with last month, Windows 10 version 20H2 is still the second-most-popular Windows 10 version, behind version 2004, which now accounts for 42.1 percent of all Windows 10 PCs.
As AdDuplex alludes, that latter figure is barely changed from last month, when version 2004 accounted for 41.8 percent of all Windows 10 PCs. So some older versions had to have lost more share. The big loser appears to be Windows 10 version 1909, which fell from 26.8 percent usage in February to 18.4 percent this month.
