Installed Xcode - Canvas fails to boot

Downloaded Xcode 26.2 from App Store. Started new Project, which defaults to "hello world".

  1. The canvas "simulator" within fails to finish indexing (paused), or
  2. When the canvas is active, the first code change (i.e. just a return key at the end of a line) cause the Xcode program to come to a stop.

Have ended Xcode and rebooted a number of times. A number of remedies are posted on the net. All a little different than the other.

Is there a current remedy for Xcode 26.2 to this issue available?
