As a Test:


Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch Photos. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library' 


Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?


Post back with the result.


(You can return to your original library simply by holding the option key when launching and choosing it.)
