[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1922516, member: 396914"] Actually, you can set the default library in Photos/Preferences, and that will be the one that opens, as long as it is available. So you don't have to use the Option opening as you have described unless you have multiple Photos libraries and want to pick between them. But, if the default library isn't there because the external storage isn't mounted, then Photos will create a new one, with no images in it, and make that the default. You can reset the default once the external is mounted, and it will remember it until it's not there, again. [/QUOTE]
