? delete photos from Imports without deleting them from an Album

I have imported via Time Machine recovery, a bunch of photos.

They all came in to the Imports on the top main menu.

I put the pics in a number of different newly created Albums.

When I delete photos form the Imports area, they also are deleted from the created new Albums.


I have deleted photos from the Imports area in the past where they did not get deleted from Albums.

? How do I do this ?

iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 11.5

You don't. Imports is just a different view of your entire library. Anything you ever import will display there.
