Description
**Description:**
I am using Ionic 6 with React. I run the following command to start up Android emulator:
`ionic cap run android -l --external --target Pixel_5_API_33`
The emulator starts up, but right away the `AndroidManifest.xml` file get updated and an `AndroidManifest.xml.org` file is added.
When I shut the emulator down, everything goes back to normal. In other words, the changes to the `AndroidManifest.xml` are reverted and the `AndroidManifest.xml.org` is deleted.
I’ve not seen any equivalent behavior with iOS.
**Steps to Reproduce:**
You can reproduce this by creating a new project `ionic start photo-gallery tabs --type=react --capacitor`
Then add android to the project `ionic cap add android`
Then start up an emulator: `ionic cap run android -l --external --target Pixel_5_API_33`
**Output:**
**My `ionic info`:**
