My monitor's native resolution is 1080p, but it does not perform upscaling/DSR above that. This is true whether it is through the Windows display settings or the NVIDIA control panel.

    The issue you are experiencing with upscaling or DSR (Dynamic Super Resolution) not functioning properly on your monitor, particularly after the “25H2 repair” update, may be related to known issues with Windows 11, version 25H2. Unfortunately, the context does not provide a specific solution for DSR or upscaling issues directly related to this update.

    However, it is recommended to ensure that you have installed the latest updates for your device, as these updates often include important improvements and issue resolutions. You may also want to check the NVIDIA control panel settings to ensure that DSR is enabled and configured correctly.

    If the problem persists, you might consider reaching out to NVIDIA support or checking their forums for additional troubleshooting steps specific to your graphics card and the latest drivers.

    Hi @Anggara Prima Nanda

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum. 

    Regarding your sharing, I understand that following the recent Windows 11 25H2 update, you are noticing a behavior where Dynamic Super Resolution (DSR) or upscaling features are not active on your 1080p monitor. 

    This situation appears to be related to how the latest Windows maintenance update interacts with specific external graphics drivers. Our partners at NVIDIA have identified this behavior and have steps to address it. 

    Please try the following troubleshooting steps in order: 

    Step 1: Ensure Windows is Fully Updated 

    First, please ensure your operating system has the latest configuration installed to support the necessary synchronization with your hardware. 

    • Go to Settings > Windows Update. 
    • Click Check for updates and install any pending updates. 
    • Restart your computer if prompted. 

    Step 2: Refresh Graphics Configuration 

    Often, display settings simply need to be re-initialized to synchronize correctly with the operating system. 

    • Open the control panel software for your specific graphics card (e.g., NVIDIA Control Panel). 
    • Locate the specific setting for DSR or Scaling. 
    • Attempt to refresh the connection by toggling the feature off, applying the changes, and restarting your computer. 
    • Once restarted, enable the setting again to see if the feature resumes normal function. 

    Step 3: Update the Graphics Driver

    If the steps above do not resolve the situation, NVIDIA has released a driver update specifically to improve compatibility with the Windows 11 25H2 update. 

    • Please visit the official NVIDIA Support website. 
    • Search for the GeForce Hotfix Display Driver (version 581.94 or newer). 
    • Download and install this driver. We recommend selecting a "Clean Install" option if available during the setup process.

    If the behavior persists after completing these steps, we strongly recommend contacting NVIDIA Support directly through their official channels. As the manufacturer of the driver software, they have the specific tools and expertise to investigate the graphics settings in depth. 

    I appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

    Looking forward to your response.
