I.E. was loosing market share long before Chrome even was a thing, largely because Firefox was eating their lunch, Chrome later overtook Firefox and IE as you say. [1] I am not sure how much of EU's intervention helped Firefox however given Mozilla's connection to Netscape. Netscape being the reason MS was being investigated by EU in the first place, it is not implausible. I am not saying EU did a good job of it, just that can and do fight large American tech companies, it is not unlikely they won't take this up.
