Have you already designed your splash screen ? And displaying correctly ?

The progress bars that are displayed during startup, display the progess of the application starting up, e.g you might have 3 processes that the application does at startup, initialise variable, open database connection, load config. You would give each of these a percentage on the progress bar and as they are completed, set the progress bar to that value

Sorry if I’ve missed your point

The Progress bar itself is easy to use, you set the min and max value (I’ve set it to 100 to repressent 100%)

progressBar1.Maximum = 100
progressBar1.Manimum=0

And then you set the amount of percentage done with a command like

progressBar1.Value = 20
