I had the same issue with XCode update. Today, the download finally started, progress bar reached 100% then... XCode was not installed. Infuriating. Too bad Microsoft don’t allow easy access to LTSB and destroyed Windows UI. I feel the state of commercial OS declined sharply in the last decade.

Yeap, me too. I tried to update XCode a couple of times with 0 success.

Are you on Catalina or Mojave by chance?

Yes. I installed Catalina for Sidecar, only to discover the feature wasn’t supported on the 2015 MBP.

Something about Catalina has been causing issues with both installing Xcode and massively increased phantom disk usage (not just related to TimeMachine). I didn’t experience the former (have colleagues who did though), but did experience the later and had it self correct (on a machine without TM enabled).

Not ideal, but http://dev.zeppel.eu/luca/SidecarCorePatch might help, apparently it works on the release version too.

I tried already. The image quality is not worth using the feature.
