@CarlS Thanks for this info. I looked in info.plist and found the previous bundle number despite changing the value in General tab. Hopefully that will help. @MikeNelson I had to double-click on the old value in the info.plist before I was able edit it. Maybe that is what you were seeing as 'hard coded', maybe

Thanks I finally got back to this. the security find-identity command was very helpful. The required identity was missing when I checked. Creating the Developer ID installer: identity was the missing piece. I had previously used an Developer ID Application: identity. The provided links were also very useful. Thanks Quinn for your help.

Inside System : Library I have the folder AssetsV2 with large Folders. com_apple_MobileAssest_iOSSimulatorRuntime 85.83 GB and .com_apple_MobileAssest_xrOSSimulatorRuntime 56.23 GB. Also _appleTVOS.. 21.41 GB and _watchOS.. 18.87 GB. I've tried xcrun simctl runtime list and delete. After a computer restart xcrun reported Total Disk Images dropping from 267.9G to 106.8G BUT no change to Finder reported sizes. DaisyDisk showed 99G free and now 240G or 68G A lot of disk images appear in Disk Utility but eject doesn't work for most of them, maybe none. In Xcode I see a lot of simulators. I was able to delete many of them but no change to memory reported by the Finder. It looks like I've tried the suggestions above. I've run out of ideas.

Using Xcode : Settings : Components and deleting unused Other Installed Platforms as shown in thread https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/810415 which points back to this thread. DaisyDisk went from 240/68 GB to 345/76GB. Now orange instead of red! Finder still shows the same size.
