If you don't want to use any commercial tools, you will have to do it by hand. A search-replace could help but you need to be careful.

Resharper is a tool that can help you with renaming namespaces.

You do need to change the namespace in every file if what you want is to change the namespace to a different one. This can be done using global search and replace (supported by Visual Studio).

If all you want to do is refer to this namespace by a different name, you do not, however need to refer to it as abc in other code, as you can alias a namespace:

using def.xyz = abc;
