Dennis, can you look at the issues with the German translation raised
in this report?

I think this was fixed:
    - Restart cardmgr if it's already running to make sure it uses any modules
      that were not available before. Closes: #234564
But I'm not 100% sure if your issue is the same.

Yeah, due to a bug the ntfs module is not loaded.  This has been
fixed.
