Photos library restoring very often

Hello,

After Upgrade to macOS Catalina on iMac Photos library restores almost every other week. Never had any issue before, I know I have over 90 thousand photos and videos. But it just started after Upgrading to macOS Catalina.

Is anyone experience this kind of issue?


Is there any solution?

Thanks,

Pushpak

Hi.


How big is your Photos Library and what type of device were the photos taken? macOS Catalina must have found some errors on your library which makes it come up in "Restoring" status. This usually happens when Photos Library is getting repaired. You can manually try doing the repair by following the steps here:
