Step 2: Select New File "General"
Step 3: Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Add-ons
Step 4: Click on Install..
Result: Blender crashes
Expectation: I should be able to install my add-ons

I have attched two debug logs.

I updated to Blender 3.0 and update my graphics card to 21.12.1. I opened blender -> edit -> preferences -> system -> cycles render devices. I selected HIP and check both boxes for my AMD CPU and GPU. I was able to upload my add-ons without crashing.
