      This issue was discovered when testing MCPE-176675

      Previously, when you granted storage permission from settings (from the device) and then opened minecraft for the first time, external storage was automatically selected.

      Analysis

      Comparison video table between versions

      minecraft external storage 1.20.0.21 beta.mp4 1.20.0.22 beta.mp4
      selected automatically

      As shown in the comparison table, it is noted that this did not occur in 1.20.0.21 beta while it did in 1.20.0.22 beta. And this is never seen in the change log.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Have Minecraft by default "installed without any prior start" (First make a backup copy of all the files that you consider important, such as worlds, templates, etc.)
      2. Open device settings > applications > Minecraft.And activate storage permission.
      3. Open Minecraft

      Expected result:
      When you open settings > storage > file storage location > "External" is selected.

      Observed Results:
      When you open settings > storage > file storage location > "Application" is selected.
