New York (CNN Business) Microsoft has ended support for Windows 7.

One-third of PCs around the world run Windows 7, according to Net, market, and share.
And the chances are there’ll be a lot of them given that Windows 7 currently has a market share of around 40 percent.

What happens if Windows 7 is no longer supported?
Put simply, if a new security vulnerability or software bug is uncovered in Windows 7, Microsoft is no longer obliged to release any sort of patch to fix the issue on the unsupported operating system; and that’s something that could put individuals and organisations that still rely on Windows 7 in danger from cyberattacks, hacking and malware.
