xcrun avgtool xcrun: error: unable to find utility "avgtool", not a developer tool or in PATH

Unable to automatically update the version number in Xcode using below command

xcrun avgtool
  xcrun: error: unable to find utility "avgtool", not a developer tool or in PATH

Tried below options

export DEVELOPER_DIR="/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer" export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$DEVELOPER_DIR:$PATH"

Also updated the command Line tools by navigating to Xcode ->
Preferences -> Locations -> Command Line Tools: selected Xcode 10.1 from drop down.

Any help will be really appreciated.

It's aGvtool and not aVgtool.

Try to run xcrun agvtool, it should be better

I can't believe I made this mistak – Nether 15/3, 2021 at 20:11

Maybe you have many versions of Xcode or the xcode-select cannot relation with Xcode. try:

sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app

This fixed the issue on macOS Catalina, even though I didn't have multiple versions of Xcode. Thanks! – Brimmer 19/3, 2020 at 11:33

Thanks! This fixed mine as well on macOS Big Sur, although I only have one Xcode of version 13.1 – Startle 13/10, 2022 at 22:10

I updated the command Line tools by navigating to Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations -> Command Line Tools to resolve above unable to find agvtool.
