New GeForce Hotfix Driver Resolves Lower Performance Bug Caused by Windows Update

NVIDIA has released a new GeForce Hotfix display driver, version 581. 94. This is based on the latest GeForce Game Ready driver, version 581. 80, which launched around two weeks ago with day-one optimizations for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Europa Universalis V, and Anno 117: Pax Romana. Following that Game Ready driver, users reported lower performance in some PC games after updating to Windows 11 October 2025 KB5066835 [5561605]. This GeForce hotfix driver resolves the issue, so if you’ve experienced that, you should download it right away. Otherwise, the fix will be rolled into the next Game Ready driver, anyway.

EUR/USD holds losses as the focus shiifts to the UD NFP report

The post EUR/USD holds losses as the focus shiifts to the UD NFP report appeared com. EUR/USD extends losses for the fifth consecutive day and trades at 1. 1525 at the time of writing on Thursday after a sharp reversal from levels near 1. 1600 on Wednesday. The US Dollar’s (USD) positive reaction to a hawkishly tilted Federal Reserve (Fed) Minutes and traders’ cautiousness ahead of the long-awaited US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report for September have boosted the Greenback across the board. The Minutes of October’s Federal Market Open Committee (FOMC) meeting revealed on Wednesday that many Fed officials were against cutting interest rates, concerned that it might compromise the fight against inflation and deteriorate public trust in the central bank. These comments have cast further doubt about the possibility of back-to-back rate cuts in December. The chances of a quarter-point interest rate cut at the December 10 meeting decline below 30%, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch tool, from 50% on Wednesday, and above 90% one month ago. The US Dollar has firmed up in the meantime. In the Eurozone, Construction Output data showed that the sector accelerated its decline in September. Later on the day, the German Bundesbank Monthly Report, and November’s preliminary Consumer Confidence reading released by the European Commission might give some further guidance to the Euro (EUR). In the US, the focus will be on September’s Nonfarm Payrolls report and the Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Survey.
