Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/LiveContainer/LiveContainer/issues/691

Describe the bug

Everytime you launch a SHARED app that uses a tweak folder it disappears from the tweaks tab and the LiveContainer folder in the Files app. It reappears sometimes if you select and deselect it. The tweaks from the tweak folder are still usable after launch, they're just hidden in LiveContainer

Instructions to reproduce

Create a tweak folder with a tweak
Select it in an apps config
Convert it into a shared app
Launch the app
Restart LiveContainer
Open the tweaks tab or the tweaks folder of LiveContainer
See the result

What version of LiveContainer and iOS are you using?

iOS: 18.3.1; LC: nightly (f20b04d)

Other info

It sometimes shows an error like: ">bundle-id< could not be moved to Applications cause it already exists there" or ">tweak-folder< could not be moved to Tweaks cause it already exists there" after converting an app

Work as intended. To prevent data corruption/data stuck in shared folder, each shared app owns its own tweak folder and cannot be shared with other apps.

That's because a shared app must also have its tweak folder moved to the shared directory which is inaccessible in Files app.
