C# Program to Create a Progress Bar Control

This is a C# Program to create a progress bar control.

This C# Program Creates a Progress Bar Control.

Here ProgressBar indicates visually the progress of an operation. It is best used on a long-running computation or task.

Here is source code of the C# Program to Create a Progress Bar Control. The C# program is successfully compiled and executed with Microsoft Visual Studio. The program output is also shown below.

This C# program is used to create a progress bar control. A Progress Bar control is used to represent the progress of a lengthy operation that takes time where a user must wait for the operation to be finished.

The Thread.Sleep() function is used to suspend the current thread for the specified number of milliseconds. In progress changed method assigns the value to Progress Bar using ‘ProgressPercentage’ which is used to get the task progress percentage.

Then RunWorkerAsync() function is used to start execution of a background operation. Here Progress Bar indicates visually the progress of an operation. It is best used on a long-running computation or task.
