In Mac version of IntelliJ, I see a problem with navigation. Problem is: when I click any file using mouse or select using keyboard from Project view, it automatically opens the file in Editor. Earlier, I've always double-clicked files in Project view to open them in Editor. How do I disable single click open? I tried to verify my KeyMap settings and nothing points to single click open.

After a little research, here is the setting that I've changed earlier inadvertently causing the problem.
Uncheck Autoscroll to Source
in Project view settings.

1Thank you. I must have forgot one-click was the default with new projects and it was driving me crazy. – Michael Peterson Feb 18 '20 at 02:22

If the Autoscroll to Source
answer doesn't help you, it's possible you have the newer Enable Preview Tab
feature enabled.
Disabling this option will allow you to single-click on items without opening a new preview pane.
