Photos app not opening My photos app is not responding. I think it has to do with a corrupted file in my library. Holding down command and option does not open up a dialogue for me, is there another way to access the library repair tool?

Photos app stuck on "closing the library." Is there an actual solution? My Photos is stuck "Closing the Library." Previous threads say to just Force Quit the program, and there are no problems or issues when relaunching. This is what I am experiencing as well. Problem solved? Is this the accepted solution to this problem? Or will my Photos app always need to be shut down like this from this point forward? Is this really what Apple has in mind for their software?
