How to unlock all four doors when touching the driver side door handler?

When I touch the driver side door handler, it just unlocks driver side door. which option can I use to unlock all four doors?
I searched options in the system menu but didn't find one.

Hold the lock button and the unlock button until you see the red light on the key turn on and stays on for a second or so as a confirmation, need to do it for both keys. If you want to switch it back you just repeat the same steps.

Correct.
And sometimes people want their keys set differently, for instance when the wife goes shopping, she may not want to open all the doors.

Yes that is true I was just trying to say to OP the car doesn't store the preference for both keys by default so OP needs to do it on both keys if want that function on, otherwise don't be surprise if OP grabs the other key it started doing it again and be confused.

Just like disabling keyless go to prevent relay attacks, need to double press the lock button on both keys or the other one is still emitting signals or as well as the car still receiving signal even if you disable the keyless go in front of the car. The car won't just stop receiving signal even if keyless go is disabled in front of the car, at least MB doesn't do that.

if you touch the rear door while holding the key fob-all doors will unlock. If you touch just the drivers door-only the drivers door unlocks
