[Bug]: Unable to install snaps from the directory #33522

Description

@hjetpoluru

Describe the bug

I am experiencing an issue where I am unable to install snaps from the directory. When I attempt to add a snap, it prompts me to download the app. However, even after downloading the app, the issue persists and I encounter an error in the console. This prevents the successful installation of snaps.

Note - Issue occurs when the Phantom wallet is toggled on.

Expected behavior

Installation confirmation dialog should apppear.
