Can't rename playlist in 12.2

Is anybody else experiencing this problem? I created a new playlist (empty) and when I double click on the name "Playlist" I am unable to edit the name, the edit box appears but disappears before I can rename, even if I type something it reverts to "Playlist"

OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

Yes, I am running version 12.6.0.100 in Windows 10 on a PC and I have the same problem. None of the methods of renaming a custom playlist works. I've tried double clicking on the name, F2, clicking on the name and selecting the renaming option from the menu and nothing works I just get the box which you can't type in and only can close. I can name new playlists either. I just get the same stupid box.

I was getting something like this last night - I kept clicking on the field, maybe I'd type a few letters, then the edit box would disappear and it'd be back to the original name. I don't seem to be having the same problem today. Total guess: iTunes was busy doing something (the CPU has certainly been busy), and whatever it was doing kept grabbing "priority" from the edit box.
