-## Translations
-
-Desktop UI translations are not contributed through pull requests. Translate on
-[Crowdin](https://crowdin.com/project/netbird) instead: no ticket needed, just
-join the project and pick your language. Crowdin syncs with this repository and
-opens the service PRs itself, so hand-edited locale files would conflict with
-the next sync. Style, terminology, and review guidance live in
-[client/ui/i18n/TRANSLATING.md](client/ui/i18n/TRANSLATING.md). To request a
-language the project does not offer yet, ask on the Crowdin project page or in
-a [discussion](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/discussions).

-dns_windows.txt (Windows only):
- Lists the NRPT rules of both policy stores, the local one and the group policy one, marking the rules the client created
- Follows them with the policy table the resolver has loaded, which differs from the rules while a change has not been picked up yet
- Includes the DNS client group policy, the global TCP/IP and Dnscache parameters, and the DNS values of every interface that has any
- Ends with the resolver configuration in effect per adapter, from GetAdaptersAddresses
- All IP addresses and domain names are anonymized
