Moving photo library to external drive

I moved my photo library off 2014 iMac to external Samsung T5 SSD, all went well. But when I try to set this as the system library Photos freezes.


any idea what I should do to get Photos to change system library?

Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode?


Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.


Any change?
