I assigned a keyboard shortcut for remove and sort usings but, I wanna know if it possible to organize usings on save or on format document?

I'm using Power Commands extension to do that, as I used before on Visual Studio 2017 and it works very well.
After installing, in Tools -> Options you have a new Productivity Power Tools option that allows configuring to Format document on save and Remove and Sort Usings on save. PowerCommands options

  • Hi! Welcome to the site. It may be worth adding that the reason this is relevant is because it includes options for **Format document on save** and **Remove and sort usings on save**. This will mean your answer could still help someone in the future if the link breaks, but the tool is still around. – m-smith Apr 29 '19 at 15:05

    In my opinion, it's worth mentioning here that there is one more setting that affects `using`s sort (at least that's the case with _Visual Studio 2015_) — it can be found in the **Tools** » **Options** » **Text Editor** » **C#** » **Advanced** » _Using Directives_ section, checkbox: _Place 'System' directives first when sorting usings_. It's useful to check-it if you like to follow this rule: [Order and group namespaces according to the company (AV2402)](https://csharpcodingguidelines.com/layout-guidelines/#AV2402) – Goran Stefanović Jan 29 '21 at 13:21
