Cannot Preview in this file. Simulator was shutdown during an update.
Hello, I am facing a recurring issue with Xcode iOS simulator (preview). I want to preview a SwiftUI for iOS in Xcode, but the Simulator app fails to boot up. I receive the follow error in Xcode: Cannot Preview in this file. Simulator was shutdown during an update. I have tried the following: Uninstall Xcode and reinstall it again Deleting all developer data Deleting Xcode cache Reinstalling iOS Simulator runtimes and reconfiguration of simulators. Tested using different simulator and runtime versions. "xcrun simctl --set previews delete al" I reported the issue: FB20485454 FB20987522 Thank you. Best regards, Jens
