      First guess is a filpped normal. Second would be that you have the roughness up to high. Really we need to see the material node tree to start figuring out what is going on or the blend file would work great too.

      Hi Guiseppe,

      Hard to say from an image, but I notice there seems to be no noise in the screen, so my guess would be, that you only have Emission on it somehow (Emission Shader?).

      Also, but this has nothing to do with your question, but your red annotation square has a shadow; is that a feature of your 'screenshot taker' ?

      Seems to me like that is a reflection of the light on the screen, if that is the case then the light is actually reflecting on the screen. Maybe you can put up other screenshot from other angles to see better what is that you mean?

      Hello Omar Martin First Thanks for your Support

      I put there my Screenshot with my Maps and Light Position.

      I think on 4.1 also the lighta value are completely different because if put the light on 10 W ist really weak.

      Thanks

      Hello Martin nop,if you  look on my Screen you see the white angle like not a light but more to a Square with a white color, but not really a light reflection.

      The white square is the light reflection. You are using area lamps, which are squared, and the screen is reflecting the squared light, so it's working as it's supposed to. Unless you are trying to achieve something else?

      Yes as Omar said. You are seeing the reflection of the Area light.
      You can move the light or you can change the camera angle so you don't see the reflection of the area light..
