"Unhandled exception has occurred in app.... group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation. (0x8007139F)."

[x-po]

Microsoft PowerToys version

0.76.2

Installation method

PowerToys auto-update

Running as admin

Yes

Area(s) with issue?

Peek

Steps to reproduce

1. Define a new filetype / extension in Registry Editor

• Create a registry key with a filename and full path of Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\._

• Configure like so:

2. Append the newly defined extension to the filename of a plain txt file, preferably one containing code (in my case vba):

outlook_options_prompt_sending.txt --> outlook_options_prompt_before_sending._

3. Highlight the renamed file and press CTRL + ⎵ to trigger a Peek window.

✔️ Expected Behavior

A Peek window appears displaying the script block (as plain text since Monaco can't identify language in a file without an extension).

❌ Actual Behavior

All text in Details section of the above dialog copied and pasted below:

Not sure if this is helpful to you, but I have the same exact issue. Peek crashes with same error code when I add the preview handler value to shellex sub-key for ahk filetypes and then attempt to activate a Peek window on an ahk script.
