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

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.
