The month of September proved to be highly unlucky for Chrome as a great number of decline was observed in its user share while Microsoft edge roused above by three times
As per the U.S. analytics vendor, Net Application report published on Thursday Chromes set back to 69.9% from 70%. This fall is the first to take place since May. A similar and largest one-point decline occurred previously in October 2019 when Chrome fell back with 1.1 points.
It is very strange to observe a consecutive decline of Chrome in the past two months. The last two-month downturn happened in November-December 2019. Because of that loss Chrome recovered by adding four percentage points in recent months.

Internet Explorer performance has neither increased nor decreased, whereas Microsoft rose by three-tenths of points. Over the past 12 months, Microsoft edge has made significant improvements in its performance by adding 3 points to its share.
Microsoft Edge vs Chrome, If Microsoft edge continues with this performance, then it is likely to make progress of 12.8% by 2021 and 14% by the end of another year.
