I just got this popup while playing New vegas. I don't even use chrome, i've switched to firefox. How can this be allowed? Also, this is Win10

In Europe it isn't. But I got it too. Even worse, my default browser was changed to Bing after an update.

Is this not literally quite almost what their first big antitrust case was all about (shipping their OS together with Internet Explorer, back then) that almost got them broken up by the state?
In a light version, yes.
European here. Which law is this breaking, exactly? Pretty sure advertising is legal
It's no ad, it's nudging. Without being asked even. They don't show you a list of search engines to set as default, they ask you to switch to Bing. My system just switched to Bing without asking.
