    From How to fix / Reset App Store app on Mac OSX - El Capitan:

    Delete:

    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
~/Library/Caches/storeaccount
~/Library/Caches/storeassets
~/Library/Caches/storedownload
~/Library/Caches/storeinappd

    I didn't have some of those folders, but I did have a couple of extras that looked fishy, so I deleted them too:

    ~/Library/Caches/storeassetd
~/Library/Caches/storedownloadd

    Run sudo softwareupdate --clear-catalog in Terminal

    From http://osxdaily.com/2016/10/08/mac-app-store-temp-cache-folder/ (paraphrasing):

    1. Quit out of the Mac App Store

    2. Open Terminal and run open $TMPDIR../C/com.apple.appstore/

    3. Hit Return and the com.apple.appstore folder will open in the Finder of Mac OS

    4. Delete the contents of this folder

    And finally:

    5. Navigate to ~/Applications in Finder and move Xcode to the Trash [Note: This step was necessary for me, but ymmv]

    6. Reboot

    7. Launch App Store. Search for Xcode. Install it fresh.
