Apple photos stuck in updating on MacBook Air

Hi there, I have problem for more than year now with Photos on my MacBook Air, V 12.6.1.

Last photograph is stuck on Dec. 21.2021. below it says "15741 photos, 41 videos ... advance bar ... uploading 5478 items"

It is sitting there doing nothing for all this time. Laptop is always on WiFi and I tried also to plug it into the Ethernet network. Reset laptop, update it with latest OS, reboot Photos. Nothing. No response in Photos. I am logged into iCloud and pictures there, on iPad and iMac are all up to date and found all devices very responsive on new photograps or videos.

Any ideas what is going on and how to fix it?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.14

I couldn't take this any more, wiped out HD, loaded fresh Monterey and issue is not there any more!
