I had this same issue with a .jpg image within a zip archive. Attempting to use peek resulted in file explorer going into a state of not responding.

I tried again later with a different shortcut and this image appeared

Looks like Peek just uses FileStream so this is not possible.

A proper fix would be to use the Shell API to read files.

Though a fix specifically for ZIP would be possible since .NET can read ZIP files.
