Daylight does not enter through the window or the doors

Daylight does not enter through the window or the doors since the last update. This takes away quite a lot of realism, at least for me. It is an essential in my game.

    If that doesn't help, I need to see the full dxdiag, saved as a .txt file, not just a screenshot.  The full file has a lot more info, for example driver dates and versions as well as Windows error reports.

    First of all, thank you @puzzlezaddict for replying me! First time writing here, in this case, I'm totally new. 

    I have inserted the image of the Dxdiag. I've been playing since The Sims 1 (I'm not one of the new players who have been able to enjoy the base game for free). So far I haven't had any problems, the famous bugs that many players (including me) have, but it hasn't bothered me. I've been playing with the graphics settings in "alto" which means "high" in English. No problems until the latest update. I think it's another bug. But if it isn't and you have a possible solution, I'd be happy to read it. Thanks again!!
