  • It’s also the way they make cheap LED headlights. The reflectors that direct the beam of light in your headlights expects the filament of the bulb to be in a very specific spot, but LED headlights often have a much wider area where the light emits from than the little filament that traditional headlights do. So when installed in cars that aren’t designed for LEDs, the beam pattern can be off and make the light shine at people instead of down toward the road.






  • In group policy (local or domain):
    Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Display highly detailed status messages

    Also make sure that this policy is not set or set to disabled:
    Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Remove Boot / Shutdown / Logon / Logoff status messages

    Instead of using local group policy you could use the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
    “VerboseStatus”=dword:00000001

    If you do it through registry, make sure this key is either non-existant or set to 0.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
    “DisableStatusMessages”

    If you use Windows a lot, get used to the group policy editor. Your computer should have the local group policy editor on it. If you’ve never used it before, you’ll be surprised at how configurable Windows can be if you know where to look. They just don’t really give those options to the everyday user.
