AFAIK Windows is still one of Microsoft’s golden geese. If they transitioned to Linux, they’d lose out on all that sweet, sweet licensing revenue. Which makes this seem unlikely to me.

Last I heard internally there hasn't even been an official Windows OS team for the last couple years after Myerson left. It's been divvied up and split apart into parts of Azure, etc.

The OP's point is Microsoft is still making billions of dollars selling millions of Windows annual licences to both personnel and corporate users.

If they were to discontinue Windows they would just be throwing away those billions of dollars in annual income.

Since Windows continues to make Microsoft such large amounts of 'easy money' they would be stupid to not keep pushing it out to customers.
