Display Folder Tree in Windows 11

Hi,

I have a drive that has numerous folders and subfolders and I would like to display the entire folder structure with a single click rather than having to click hundreds of folders individually to show their subfolders. I've searched the internet and youtube and have not been able to find a solution to this, which seems like it should be fairly basic functionality.

Any advice on how to do this with Windows 11 would be much appreciated.

thank you,

Tim

You may select a folder at the left pane and press asterisk on numeric pad. If you prefer to use a mouse, right click on folder and select Expand.
Please correct me if I misunderstood you.

Thanks Igor, I've tried that and it only shows the folders directly below the folder I click on on the left pane. I would like to see all the sub sub folders as well - basically all of the folders below what I click on, not just one level down.

It should expand all folders. Do you have some third party tools to change an interface?
And please repair system files by
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
command from Windows PowerShell (administrator) environment.
