Is there a way to resume failed Simulator downloads? I have a slow and unreliable internet connection, and have tried many times to download the 14.0 or 14.1 Simulator, they always end with a "lost connection" error. Is there a way to resume a failed download, or download them using a bit-torrent protocol?
I had the same problem updating Xcode itself, but eventually found a screen where failed downloads could be resumed (I think I had to do a system update of a component). I have not found any alternate screens for downloading a Simulator.
My download speed is about 1GB every 2 hours, so a 4.5GB Simulator would take 9 hours. There is usually a temporary disconnect every hour, so that is when the download dies.
