QuickLook with space bar only previewing small thumbnail.

I use QuickLook with my space bar constantly to preview images. In the past, it was always a larger image. Now, it only shows a small thumbnail. I've followed older threads that discuss the cache but have been unable to remedy the issue with their suggestions. Image of what I see now attached.

Finder icon view images pixelated in Mac OS There seems to be a bug in MacOS relating to display of images in icon view. If you open a folder, choose icon view and drag the size slider to the extreme right you get pixelated images. Is there any workaround? I'm on Monterey 12.3.1. Thanks in advance, Andreas

Opening a file from Finder in Preview makes the screen revert to another program If I’m editing a lot of files in Finder, and opening them up in Preview to be able to (say) save as a jpeg, when I close Preview, because the screen has jumped onto something else (like iMovie) I need to navigate back to Finder. Anyone know why as soon as you double click a file to open in Preview, rather than the ‘back screen’ just stay as Finder, it jumps to something else that’s open. If nothing else it opens it goes back to the Desktop screen. Thanks.

Pixelated icons in file manager For some reason the preview icons in file viewer are badly pixelated for jpg files but not for their raw equivalents, but only at maximum icon size. If I slide it one step lower, the pixelation disappears on the jpg image. The effect is reversible! I would prefer to have larger, more densely packed icons. Perhaps there is a better file viewer I should be using? This topic has come up before but I am reposting in case a solution has come up. Two files (raw and jpg) at max icon size: The two files at one notch lower size:
