Getting a millions of users who are using Windows...
...to switch to other OSs like Linux or Mac will not solve the problem. You can't rely on OS, browser, and security software for peace of mind, privacy, and security.

Those who tell the government to get everyone to switch to Linux or Mac are considered to be ignorant. Linux/Mac nerds can never be sure that everyone who switch to Linux or Mac will never get their computers hacked by cybercrooks because sooner or later, cybercrooks will target their attacks against users' computers running Mac or Linux, but we will never know.

In short, whether millions of Windows will switch to Mac or Linux or not, this will never happen.
