Recently I have very bad experience with simulators. I can't run them at all, almost immediately crash upon launching. Preview in Xcode works occasionally. I tried today to reinstall macOS, Xcode, (I erased my HDD before that). I started a fresh new project in Xcode and I can't run it on the simulator, it crashes instantly. What I noticed from the logs is that: Sep 27 22:07:14 Vasils-MacBook-Pro CoreSimulatorService[810] : com.apple.CoreSimulator.CoreSimulatorService 920.6 starting.

Has anybody else experienced that? I am going a little bit crazy already I don't know where exactly the runtime is supposed to be, do you have any suggestions?

Same here, my previews and simulators crash instantly. From the CoreSimulator log I get the message that simulator doesn’t see the runtime even though it is iinstalled. I have tried different versions but no luck so far. Try to check ~/Library/Logs/CoreSimulator/CoreSimulator.log file and see what kind of messages you get when you run the simulator
