How to disable code folding in Visual C++ 2010

Question

Does anyone know how to disable code folding in Visual C++ 2010?

In the 2008 version I used to disable it by unchecking a certain check box, but this seems to be removed.

I tried to get these How to permanently disable region-folding in Visual Studio 2008 solutions done, but I can't really get rid of the code folding, in particular the tree node graphics on the left and the text region colors that don't fit my dark color scheme.

Google search for folding don't give much results, since Microsoft calls this feature "code outlining".
