Xcode 26: can’t get past the agreement acceptance pop-up

I had this happen last year too. Can’t remember how I solved the issue. I think I just had to wait and the 3rd beta opened properly. I went into terminal and accepted the Xcode agreement there, but still no go. I'm considering reinstalling MacOS because it doesn't seem like others are having this issue. Any ideas?

I double click on the Xcode beta, the agreement screen pops up. I click on agree and I either double click my watch button or type in my password and then nothing. The pop-up doesn't disappear and Xcode never opens. I'm on MacOS Sequoia 15.5.

Thank you. I filed the report and attached a sysdiagnose. ID is FB17906161.

I reset my Mac and it now works. I redownloaded the Xcode 26 beta and I was able to accept the user agreement without issue.
