Who decides what are good translations war: Update German translation.

[Thomas Kaltenbrunner]

BTW. Who decides what are good translations?

"Anwendungsentferner" reminds me at Germans "Trolls" that refuse to use
well known english terms which are solely used in the area of computer
and software. So they are a  technical/special terms in German.

The term  "Anwendungsentferner" you will find  in wine only ...

Eine Anwendung entfernt man mit Hilfe des Uninstallers oder der
Deinstallationssoftware/dem Deinstallationsprogramm.

Viele Grüße
