You can adjust the sensitivity of the mouse double-click. Control

it faster so a 2 second click is not assumed to be a double click.

That will make the problem worse.

The OP called it a *slow* double click, which is a misnomer. The
feature is a *second* click, not a double click. If the folder is
already selected, a second click will open up the name for editing.

What the OP wants is a setting that disables name editing using left
click. It is already disabled in the folder panel. There you need to
right-click and select rename. I think the OP wants that behavior in
the contents (right) panel as well. That would be a useful feature.

Is it possible to turn off the Windows feature that allows you to rename a
folder by doing a slow double click on the folder name?

I teach beginners and they are not very quick at the double click to start
with and folders keep getting renamed and dragged to other folders.
