You have to change the Ray Depth to a higher value, probably like 10 will work. Go to the render setting and change the values in red to something higher.

Did you try, modifying the material? Probably turning every channel oof but the transparency, and make it 100% transparent. Try that to see if it change something.

you have to make sure two things are turned on:
- Global Illumination within render settings in Cinerender and you have difuse depth of 2 (if it's configured on 1 it won't cause any light reflection and if it's more than 2 it will incredibly increase render time)
- Check the material of the glass in the window (more specifically you have to check the transparency channel. color should be black not white and brightness should be 95 because if it's set to 100% you will lose the feeling of a glass and it will look like air)

hope that would help

Maybe it's normal after all.

Are those the only windows in your construction?if it is the case, this may cause the dark aspect you are seeing here.

Add some interior light to get a more transparent windows . this may help.
