for the Tahoe host and guest: does guest login to app store work, and does xcode in guest work?

in my environment: I upgraded host and guest to Tahoe, the guest still cannot login to app store with error: an unknown error occurred

tl;dr - No

This is not supported indeed.

The feature availability is documented here if that helps: https://support.apple.com/en-us/120468

The thread referenced by RickMaddy has a lot of backstory here, but I want to address this bit specifically:

does xcode in guest work?

Xcode does work in the guest but with one significant limitation: You can’t run Mac apps that use restricted entitlements [1]. For some folks that’s a complete showstopper. For others it’s a non-issue.

If this a problem for you, I recommend that you watch the above-mentioned thread where I’ve been posting updates about new developments in this space.


Oh, and all of the above is assuming you’re on Apple silicon. The story for Intel-based Macs is very different.
