I read 16% from that graph, but that's still considerable.

The Wikimedia stats might also provide some insight:

https://analytics.wikimedia.org/dashboards/browsers/#desktop-site-by-os/os-family-and-major-hierarchical-view

The last 30 days, 8.5% of the Wikimedia "desktop sites" (ie. not mobile)
visits were from Windows 7, which in turn is 12% of their Windows clients
visits.

I imagine Wikimedia stats are pretty geographically biased, since its by far
biggest chunks of content is in either English or other European languages.
