Addons wont work they're in the minecrafts files but not in game

So the addons for MCPE wont work. I checked it in the games files and there they are in the Resource pack and Behavior Pack folder. The Addons are in the files but not in game, and this is a Crucial issue for Modders (as me) because i have so much worlds with Addons but they’re now just gone (The Addons from the world) I dont know if this is a bug or something, but I NEED Addons. And im pretty sure 90% of the MCPE Community uses or used Addons sometime in their life. This issue is with manual Downloaded Addons from different websites, that other players made. Redownloading the Addons wont work.

I can confirm this is happening. I opened Minecraft after 1.21.120 installed automatically. I used to have a bunch of stuff (add-ons, custom skin packs) in the com.mojang folder that’s suggested by the Creator Guide (link). But now it appears like I have no add-ons or skins, which will potentially break my modded worlds if I open them. Seems like the code isn’t loading the original “com.mojang” folder anymore.

Hope this can get fixed soon, I had to cancel a gaming season with a couple of friends because we’re afraid we delete our addon-related progress.

This video may help you copy the resources from the old structure to the new one

Tried out the video, but just then Minecraft deleted all my own resource packs and behavior packs (after “updating” them when I opened back the game) without a way to recover them. I believe I only had to move the desired packs instead of the whole com.mojang structure, but I messed it up and lost all my stuff, things I didn’t save anywhere else (my bad of course, I should have expected Minecraft to suddenly delete my files) and will break some worlds. Honestly I feel bad about this, but I guess it’s all my fault because it was an expected behavior, not a bug.

Thanks for the explanation!
