In Photos App , I don't want to enable some unknown faces / People recognition.
Meaning. : Let's say that there is a Photo with 10 faces and I only want to recognize one face.
Other faces named Automatically as Unnamed and I don't want / need them
How can I disable Unnamed faces BUT leave an option to name Unnamed faces that didn't named yet and these faces I want to recognize ...
Thanks.
The face detection is fully automatic and cannot be disabled in Photos for Mac.
We are not forced to put a name below the "unnamed faces". We can simply ignore them. Only the people we name will be added to the People album, but Photos is trying to recognise each and every face. This information is necessary to recognise the type of the scene, for example to to recognise a sporting event or a concert. Since Photos 3 on macOS High Sierra we even can no longer remove the circles around faces of people we are not interested in.
You can only turn off the option "View > Show faces", so we do no longer see the faces circles and names of strangers in the background and can view the photo clearly without the faces clutter. But this is just hiding all recognised faces and does not disable the face detection.

Ps :
"The face detection is fully automatic..."
It's more than 3 days that the Photos App keep updating people.
Is there a way to faster finish the process ?
I'm with an iMac.
Maybe on " Energy Saver " preferences something wrong that the Photos app need to work on a "Mac connected to power"
Thanks
repairing won't help. It just takes a long time. I've no idea why, though it seems to be particularly problematic with people who don't have many pictures in your library.
My approach now is to forget about it and check back once a month or so.
Thanks very much !
You're welcome, rony-z
Now its a week and no progress ...
Any advice will be appreciated
Ps. Already repaired the photos file.
"A month .."
Wow.
Thanks.
PS
I'm managing it via the iMac photos App
In my iPhone Photos App I can see a Delay in progress even all my Apple devices under the same Apple ID.
