Comments

The ExpandButtons property defines whether expand buttons are shown.

The end-user can click on the expand button to expand a folder to view its subfolders.

A folder may show an expand button, even though the folder has no subfolders.  This can occur if the process of determining whether a folder has subfolders is too time consuming.  In this case an expand button is shown.  It is removed once the user attempts to expand the folder and it is determined that the folder has no displayable contents.
