Lumia 950 photos app permanently refreshing, when will it stop?

[Windows Central Question]

lumia 950 photos app permanently refreshing

I noticed that the photos app shows photos that have been deleted from the handset and OneDrive (no SD card is fitted).

I read one solution is to delete these unwanted photos in file explorer, and refresh photos app - the app is permanently refreshing (spinning arrows, bottom right), and the screen will go to the lock screen!

When will it stop refreshing (and stop displaying the unwanted photos)?!

did you try soft resetting?

hold power button for 10 seconds till the phone vibrates and reboots
