Remarks
Use the ExpandAll method to conveniently expand the current node and all its child nodes.
Note
As an alternative, you can also set the Expanded property of the current node and each of its child nodes to true.
To expand only the current node, consider using the Expand method.
ExpandAll will expand all the nodes in the entire tree.
