Click on a file in the list to select it. It is highlighted.
If you click on the list white background, the file is "unselected" (status bar confirm this) but a frame around the filename remain.
Is there any way to make the program to stop displaying it?

Configuration | Colors and Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode | Focus rectangle -> None

Yesssss. Thank you.

XY behavior:
1. select a file
2. click on empty space
3. press F2 > the previous selected file has it's name in editing mode.

How can I clear focus when click on empty space (like it is in File Explorer) so when I press F2 to do nothing?

You can't clear the focus. If you don't like the current behavior:

Create a user defined command from the category "Run Script"
with this: and bind F2 to it...

I noticed that if I don't have anything selected in list, I cannot rename the folder in tree.
Steps to replicate:
- click on a file in list
- click on white background in list
- click on the folder in tree
- F2 > doesn't do anything
or
- click on a folder in tree (other than current folder)
- F2 > doesn't do anything

Can't replicate

I am using the script above and F2 remapping.

<get SelectedItemsNames> is for items in the list pane, not for selected tree folders
Add another check if the focus is on the tree...
