I downloaded the XCode via appstore, I installed it successfully , But after updating it got stuck, So I uninstall it in Application Folder but the icon of xcode and "Downloading" in launchpad are still there, I removed the xcode Icon by hold+click on xcode icon and "x" icon. However the "Downloading icon in launchpad still there. I tried to install it again Via appstore but it keeps loading now. "Downloading/Installing" icon in launchpad is still there and stucked even I deleted xcode

How can I delete the "Installing/Downloading" icon in launchpad?

For some with a prior version installed update deltas can be as small as 400 MB but have the same perception of being stuck. Eventually, it finishes but can assume the update duration has something to do with patching an already codesigned toolset with a foreign set of binaries that most likely will take on the new code signatures. Who knows, maybe Apple can provide information in the UI/UX when the process is either downloading or installing or patching, I'm just postulating!
