How to know if a photo is used in any album/albums?

I see a photo in All Photos.

How do I know if a photo is used in any album and what albums if it is used in multiple albums?

Thank you!

There's a user supplied AppleScript that will tell you which albums a selected photo is in: How to find out the albums a photo is in: Jacques Rioux's Script, Catalina Version for Photos 5 - Apple Community


It works with Photos V6 also. The script compiled as an application can be downloaded from this tutorial site:  P01 - Applescripts from Photos’ User Tips Compiled as Applications  . To open the application the first time Control (right) - click on it and select Open from the contextual menu.
