The update indeed updates the english language file (it's joomla which does that). That's why we recommend in the documentation regarding the translation modifications to use the override area of the translation edition so that you don't loose your changes when you update :

Now regarding your fields, the email field cannot be removed from the registration form of the checkout. It's actually not a custom field. So if you don't see it anymore on your checkout, it would mean either that you removed the "login" view from your checkout workflow or that you're already logged in.
We would need more information on how you configured your checkout (screenshot of the checkout tab of the configuration), how you configured your custom fields and a link to the page and if you have an error message when you access your checkout with the debug mode an error reporting options of the joomla configuration turned on.
Please note that when you create a new thread, you can see in the text area several rows of information that you can fill in. Instead of removing them, it would be wise to fill them in so that we don't have to ask them to you. Otherwise, you loose time while we have to ask you the information about the problem and you then have to wait again for our next answer.
