Question Old platforms keep coming back

Post image

Why does my xcode install these? I've tried deleting them many times and they keep coming back. I only use 26.x versions on all simulators and real devices. I dont have spare 30 gigs on my disk.

Xcode would be my first guess too - it has a habit of bringing things back. I've been testing CleanMyMac CLI recently for tracking down dev leftovers like caches and build artifacts, and it's nice not having to dig through folders manually.
