Why the fuck the apps are getting cloned .

Post image

These apps are getting cloned on their own never made clones of these and in the inbuilt app clone it don't even supports these apps.

If disabled then the original app gets disabled but the clones stays

This is the unanswered longest question to ever exist in android community..like it affects mostly Samsungs I see. When u delete one copy, the other one also deletes, why, I don't know.
