Research direction
Start by reproducing the search in the issue with files sharing a name, using the “In current folder” option, and inspect how search results choose thumbnails or icons. Compare the result handling for JPG, PNG, TXT, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, PDF, and Markdown files. Done means supported files show previews and other files show icons, consistently with the Files app.
