In Visual Studio, is there a command to collapse/expand all the sections of code in a file?
CTRL + M + O will collapse all.
CTRL + M + L will expand all. (in VS 2013 - Toggle All outlining)
CTRL + M + P will expand all and disable outlining.
CTRL + M + M will collapse/expand the current section.
CTRL + M + A will collapse all even in Html files.
These controls are also in the context menu under Outlining.
Right click in editor -> Outlining to find these controls. (After disabling outlining, use same steps to enable outlining.)
For outlining options: Go to Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> C# -> Advanced -> Outlining for outlining options.

The following key combinations are used to do things:
CTRL + M + M → Collapse / Expand current preset area (e.g. Method)
CTRL + M + H → Collapse / Hide (Expand) current selection
CTRL + M + O → Collapse all(Collapse declaration bodies)
CTRL + M + A → Collapse all
CTRL + M + X → Expand all
CTRL + M + L → Toggle all
There some options in the context menu under Outlining.

CTRL + M + L expands all
CTRL + M + O collapses all
In the MSDN article "Default Keyboard Shortcuts in Visual Studio," see the section "Text Editor" if you're looking for other shortcuts - these 2 are just a few of the many that are available.

In Visual Studio 2017, It seems that this behavior is turned off by default. It can be enabled under Tools > Options > Text Editors > C# > Advanced > Outlining > "Collapse #regions when collapsing to definitions"

CTRL + M + O
does not

If you mean shortcut then
CTRL + M + M: This one will collapse the region your cursor is at whether its a method, namespace or whatever for collapsing code blocks, regions and methods. The first will collapse only the block/method or region your cursor is at while the second will collapse the entire region you are at.

Are you refering to the toggle outlining?
You can do: Control + M then Control + L to toggle all outlining

To collapse all use:
Ctrl + M and Ctrl+A

None of these worked for me. What I found was, in the editor, search the Keyboard Shortcuts
file for editor.foldRecursively
. That will give you the latest binding. In my case it was CMD + K, CMD + [.

In case of ugrading to Visual Studio 2010, 2012, 2013 or 2015, there's a Visual Studio extension to show current registered keyboard shortcuts, IntelliCommand.

Visual Studio can help you find the answer to your question in a couple of different ways.
Type Ctrl + Q to access Quick Launch, and then enter "collap". Quick Launch will display something like:†
Menus (1)
Edit -> Outlining -> Collapse to Definitions (Ctrl+M, Ctrl+O)
NuGet Packages (1)
Search Online for NuGet Packages matching 'collap'
From there, enter "outlining" to find other menu entries related to outlining:
Menus (5)
Edit -> Outlining -> Toggle Outlining Expansion (Ctrl+M, Ctrl+M)
Edit -> Outlining -> Toggle All Outlining (Ctrl+M, Ctrl+L)
Edit -> Outlining -> Stop Outlining (Ctrl+M, Ctrl+P)
Edit -> Outlining -> Stop Hiding Current (Ctrl+M, Ctrl+U)
Edit -> Outlining -> Collapse to Definitions (Ctrl+M, Ctrl+O)
Options (4)
Text Editor -> Basic -> VB Specific (Change outline mode, Automatic inser...
...
However, note that Quick Launch will show you only those commands that are available as Visual Studio menu entries. To find other keyboard-related commands related to collapsing sections of code, in the Visual Studio menu bar click:
Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard
This will display the keyboard section in the Options dialog box. In the "Show commands containing" text box, enter "edit.collap". Visual Studio will display a list that is something like:
Edit.CollapseAllincurrentblock
Edit.CollapseAllOutlining Ctrl+M, Ctrl+A (Text Editor)
Edit.CollapseBlockcurrentblock
Edit.CollapseCurrentRegion Ctrl+M, Ctrl+S (Text Editor)
Edit.CollapseTag Ctrl+M, Ctrl+T (Text Editor)
Edit.CollapsetoDefinitions Ctrl+M, Ctrl+O (Text Editor)
You'll need to click each command to see its associated keyboard shortcut.

If you want to collapse/expand
an area within a class/method
(instead of collapsing the entire class/method
), you may create custom regions as follow:
#region AnyNameforCollapsableRegion
//Code to collapse
#endregion
