I just discovered this option by accident. It's probably been available since the dark ages but I was never aware of it. I discovered it when my new mouse (Logitech Wireless Trackball) would not open files with a double (or single) click. When I checked I found out how to enable/disable single click to open. I am now happy with the single click to open files and I wonder what is the downside to using single click? I can't think of any and wish I had learned this earlier in my computer life.

I once had the scroll wheel on my Logitech mouse set to double click, which was nice. Then I started using a 3d program which didn't like the scroll wheel set to double click. Once I set it back to its default function the problem stopped. Just an FYI in case someone runs across a similar problem.
If something gets your goat, it just proves you have a goat to get.

I'm really liking this single click option. In the event I want to click on several files for moving/deleting etc. I just use either the ctrl or cap key and that turns off the option to open so everything is working well for me.
