/locate minecraft:village_(biome) bugs out my minecraft

When trying to do a "/locate minecraft:village_(biome), there is no output, it makes me unable to interact with things, and when trying to save and quit it just stays on the saving screen, making me use task manager to close minecraft. When I log back in, things that I had previously put in a chest, are now in my inventory and the chest, duplicating my items. All other commands work.
