If you look at infection rate reports[^], newer versions of Windows are much less likely to be infected than older ones. A trend that's been in place for at least the last few years (as long as I've been looking at the reports). OTOH a lot of the exploits being used are ones that were patched a long time ago; there's not enough detail to see how much is more severe inherent weakness vs sunshines who just decide to turn off Windows Update.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
