Xcode randomly stopped working

Xcode 16.2 (and also Apple Configurator) randomly stopped working since today morning.

Upon opening, the application crashes -> "unexpectedly quit".

I've tried restarting the Mac, I reinstalled Xcode, still the same issue.

This issue is currently on my MacBook Pro M4 on macOS Sequoia 15.3.1.
