Add Language in Xcode 14.1 Simulator problem

I updated my Xcode to 14.1. but when I want to add a language in Setting, it stays on this page and I can't do any thing.

All I can do is Erase All content and Setting to return to normal state. It works on my MacBook Air M1, but no on my MacBook Pro 2019 Intel i7

It works on M1/M2 but it doesn't on Intel. You can use the command line tool simctl as a workaround. To set the preferred language to e.g. "German" use the following command:

xcrun simctl spawn <UUID> defaults write "Apple Global Domain" AppleLanguages -array de

To change the region use:

xcrun simctl spawn <UUID> defaults write "Apple Global Domain" AppleLocale -string 'de_DE'

Replace <UUID> with the UUID of the device you want to change. To get the currently booted device(s) use:

xcrun simctl list 'devices' 'booted'

After you have changed language and/or region you need to shutdown and reboot the device like this.

xcrun simctl shutdown <UUID> followed by xcrun simctl boot <UUID>

If you only want to change the currently booted device(s) you can just use 'booted' instead of the UUID. Like so:

xcrun simctl shutdown 'booted'

So, to change the preferred language of the currently booted device(s) to English, just use:

xcrun simctl spawn 'booted' defaults write "Apple Global Domain" AppleLanguages -array en

To change language and/or region the desired device(s) must be booted.
