Question

I’m trying to do stuff that requires internet as soon as my form loads.
Now my problem is that the functions with internet (meaning it takes a bit) start before the form is actually loaded.

I can’t use a backgroundworker so I need another alternative to get my form to load before the functions start.

public IntroForm()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    StartChecking();
}

If you don’t want to use BackgroundWorker you can use TPL like that:

public IntroForm() 
{     
    InitializeComponent();     
    Task.Factory.StartNew(StartChecking);
}
