I see that if I double click the edge of a window, it expands to fill the screen (or I guess tile). But, it sometimes happens to me by accident when trying to click the edge of a window to manually drag. Can I turn this off? I didn't find an option to do so.
Mac mini, macOS 15.4
I already have Stage Manger turned off.
I see some of the Widget settings are on? I don't really use Widgets. And I don't see how that would affect other windows.
I agree that turning these off do not turn off the double click expanding to the edge of the desktop. My solution is to increase the double click speed so it is less often accidentally detected.
Some third party apps help with window behavior in effective ways. check out Rectangle or BetterTouchTool.

You can turn off Tiling... ref: see "Windows" section below
however the basic function of clicking on any border to expand to the edge, I am unaware of a way to disable this feature.
You can submit your Apple Feedback here: Product Feedback - Apple
Tiling is the pertinent setting...
Click a window edge is a default macOS to expand in that direction.
Your solution may be the best resolve.
I never had the issue of accidentally clicking an edge to expand...
