18-Nov-2023In Visual Studio 2022, you can convert to file-scoped namespaces by using the "Organize Usings" feature. Here are the steps to do this for all files in your project:
Open Visual Studio 2022.
In the Solution Explorer, right-click on your project.
Select "Refactor" from the context menu, and then choose "File Scoped Namespaces" from the submenu.
Visual Studio will apply file-scoped namespaces to all files in your project.
Alternatively, you can use a code fix suggestion. If you see a light bulb icon in the code editor, you can click on it, and it might offer you an option to "Use file-scoped namespaces."
Please note that converting to file-scoped namespaces is a feature introduced in C# 10. If your project is targeting an older version of C#, you may need to update your language version in the project settings.
Here's a simple representation in a code-like form:
