The game crashes when importing .mcaddon files.
Apparently, this issue only affects .mcaddon files, since separating the behavior_pack into a .mcpack and the resource_pack into another .mcpack, and importing them separately, works without problems.
This issue also happens when downloading an addon from the Marketplace — the crash occurs as soon as the import process starts.
I did some testing to figure out what the problem was, and I found it: the game crashes only when there is content inside the development_behavior_packs and development_resource_packs folders.
And no, there are no duplicate addons, textures, or UUIDs inside those folders.

Antivirus: I don't use one, I've never used one, and everything was working fine until version 1.21.90 was released — that's when the issue started, and it continues in 1.21.92.
This happens with all .mcaddon files, whether I download an addon from MCPEDL, CurseForge, or even from the Marketplace — the game crashes as soon as the file is imported.
I did some testing to figure out the cause, and I found it: if there is any content inside development_behavior_packs and development_resource_packs, the game crashes when I try to import a .mcaddon.
And no, there are no duplicate addons, textures, or UUIDs inside development_behavior_packs or development_resource_packs. The crash occurs as soon as I try to import any .mcaddon file.
Hi!

The problem is not the way the addons are created, meaning it's not a specific one, since the issue happens with any addon, including marketplace addons.
But as I mentioned, if there are any packs inside development_behavior_packs or development_resource_packs, that's when it crashes upon importing a .mcaddon.
Thank you for your report!

Does this occur with every addon, or with specific addons? Could you attach an example? Are you using any disk management or antivirus/security software that could be affecting how files are handled?
