Deleted the "Photos Library.photoslibrary"

I deleted the "Photos Library.photoslibrary" by mistake and can't establish the photos from the iCloud again in the MacBook. How can I fix this?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Can't disconnect iCloud photos sync, because photos wont open, because library wont load. Hi all. I want to just manually store photos because, yet again, a library of sorts was unable to be restored on Mac. (as has happened with Music and Photo Booth grrr!). Anyway, I would like to delete the photos library I have on my computer without deleting the photos from my icloud. Ideally, even better I would like to have a load it, and have a peak to organise things first, if possible. Otherwise, just remove the library and stop icloud streaming photos. My photos library is just sat there in my pictures folder but I can't link/open it. When I try to disconnect photos in iCloud I get this: But whenever I try to open photos and link the library I get this... What the! Do I have to 'create new' instead?

iCloud does not detect my imported Photos library Hello, I have restored my photos library into my new MacBook Pro from a backup. When I go to System Preferences to turn iCloud on, I get a message "iCloud features for Photos are only available in the System Photo Library" My System Photo Library should be the one I restored from backup into the Macintosh HD\users\pictures right?

See the article https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT201732

To remove a file from the Trash, click the Trash to open it, then drag the file out of the Trash. Or select the file and choose File > Put Back.

If you have emptied the trash the file is deleted then create a new test user account https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204443
