Add `Set-PSReadlineKeyHandler -Key Tab -Function Complete` to your PowerShell profile. This way you can press the Tab key twice after a command to view all possible parameters, properties, and possiblities.
The double tab method is similar to the normal tab completion, except it will show you all of the options at once instead of just one option at a time.
Note: Requires the `PSReadLine` module, which is included in PowerShell 5.1 and newer.
