Bug in Windows 11 taskbar aero peek live preview showing an invisible window

Hi Microsoft,

I believe that there is a bug with the Taskbar hover live preview Aero Peek in Windows 11. (I am using Windows 11 22H2).

Bug Reproducing instructions:

Use my WindowsProject1.cpp in a Visual Studio 2022 C++ Windows Desktop Application template and build it.

Run the resultant program and open the Help->About box.  Close it.

Then, hover over the icon in the taskbar.

Then hover over the preview.

The live preview shows a window which I have made invisible with 

ShowWindow(hwnd2, 0);

I made this example from the VS2022 Visual Studio C++ Windows Desktop Application project template.

I only modified the WindowsProject1.cpp file.

Usage of my program:
On the menu, click Help->About. When you close the About box, my code in the
about box 

callback calls ShowWindow(hwnd2, 0); and Update Window(hwnd2);

I have found that if I move this code to immediately after the hwnd2 is
created, the issue does not happen.

Apologies in advance if there is anything wrong with my post.  This is my first post to this community.

Thanks for your help!

Best Regards,
