Xcode Update Stuck For Days

Hey all. I have had an Xcode update though the App Store stuck for days if not a week or two now. I can't even cancel the update or delete the app from Launchpad at this point. I searched online and I know from the other threads I found it can be very slow to update but at this point I am just looking for a way to force the app store to stop the update so I can delete it. Thanks!

I'm in the same boat - been trying to update Xcode for 2 days now. I've tried deleting caches, rebooting in safe mode, etc and nothing will stop the App Store install. I'm perfectly fine with manually downloading Xcode from the dev site (I would prefer it actually) but I need to stop the App Store install.

Me too. I have several MacBooks. On my Intel MacBook Pro (2017) the update took two days. On my M1 Pro MacBook (2021) too. On my MacBook Air (M1, 2020) the update is going on for five (!) days (!) now.

I should stop developing in Swift, remove Xcode from my machines and install Git from elsewhere (MacPorts) ...

Really annoying! And no Apple support!

Me too.

Is it mining bitcoin?

I have the same problem, days ago, did you solve it?
