I have a question: the software does not belong to the user, it's licensed for use by Microsoft, right? So how come this is not Microsoft's problem?

And which problem are you talking about - the problem that people had to pay ransom and/or were deprived of their computers for a while, or the problem that people need to update their Windows?
