Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported Peek sequence on the listed Windows 10 and Windows 11 versions: alternate Space, file selection, and Ctrl+D as described. Compare the resulting behavior with the screenshot and define the expected behavior before locating the affected Peek entry point; done means the sequence no longer produces the reported issue.
