I had the same problem and found out Folding can be enabled or disabled, and in my case got disabled somehow.

To solve it, simply right click on the line numbers/breakpoint section (vertical bar in the left of the editor), then under the 'Folding' section chose 'Enable folding'.

ctrlshift/ should be working fine after.

The question is a bit old  but let me add a different approach   In addition to the above hot-key approaches  there are default preference settings that can be toggled   As of Eclipse Galileo  and definitely in my Eclipse Version  Indigo Service Release 2 Build id  20120216-1857  language specific preferences can open up new files to edit which are already collapsed or expanded   Here is a link to Eclipse Galileo online docs showing the feature for C C     http   help eclipse org galileo index jsp topic  org eclipse cdt doc user reference cdt u c editor folding htm    In my Eclipse Indigo I can open the Folding Preferences window via   menu  Window  Preferences  Java  Editor  Folding and set all options on so I can open files by default that are completely collapsed
