It used to be more common. Back in the day, Windows frequently overwrote Grub "accidentally", most likely because they wanted to make using Linux painful. That was back when Ballmer called Open Source cancer.

Meanwhile Microsoft has softened their stance on Linux and Open Source, and they made it much less of an issue.
