Having the same issue, Macos Tahoe 26.2, i tried everything i found on net: deleting caches, all xcode files, reinstalling it, rebooting my computer, deleting all simalator devices, deleting IOS from Xcode => setting components, downloading it again. I tried installing older IOS, no help, when starting emulator i have this error: "Unable to boot the Simulator"
And this error, when i'm trying to do this from terminal
