Quick summary

Note: I forked and built this repository and tested it on WindowsOS. So this issue may be specific to Windows OS.

Depending on how the media was uploaded, one error can occur here:

https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/blob/2074392c5cb15be2dec399c2a6efb2c60fbb671c/src/wp-includes/functions.php#L2395

After further investigation, I realized that the wp_upload_dir() function returns a path that does not exist.

var_dump( wp_upload_dir() );

array(6) {
  ["path"]=>
  string(40) "/var/www/html/wp-content/uploads/2024/04"
  ["url"]=>
  string(48) "http://localhost:8882/wp-content/uploads/2024/04"
  ["subdir"]=>
  string(8) "/2024/04"
  ["basedir"]=>
  string(32) "/var/www/html/wp-content/uploads"
  ["baseurl"]=>
  string(40) "http://localhost:8882/wp-content/uploads"
  ["error"]=>
  string(102) "Unable to create directory wp-content/uploads/2024/04. Is its parent directory writable by the server?"
}

I have WordPress installed on D:\_wp-studio\, so these paths don't exist.
