double-click an audio file - issue

[Debugger]

I am experiencing an issue with Everything 1.15.01396a (latest version on Windows 11 25H2 26200.7705).

When I double-click an audio file (e.g., .mp3) in Everything, instead of opening it with the default application, it often goes into “rename file” mode. This behavior is **dangerous**, as it has already caused me to accidentally change original file names.

This problem occurs **only in Everything**; in other file management/search tools like Windows Explorer, MasterSeeker, double-clicking the same files opens them correctly in their default applications.

I would like to know:
1. Is there a way to **disable rename on double-click** in Everything?
2. Can Everything be configured so that **double-click always opens the file** with its default application, without affecting file names?

1. Is there a way to **disable rename on double-click** in Everything?

There's no option to rename on double click.
Everything is likely only seeing a single click.

Please try disabling select_text_click_action:

• In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Advanced tab on the left.
• To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
  click
• Select: selected_text_click_action
• Set the value to: None
• Click OK.

2. Can Everything be configured so that **double-click always opens the file** with its default application, without affecting file names?

That is always the default behavior.
Please try disabling select_text_click_action as mentioned above and see if the issue persists.
