    Since you can’t define a WndProc directly in WPF, you need to obtain a HwndSource, and add a hook to it :

    public Window1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    
        this.SourceInitialized += Window1_SourceInitialized;
    }
    
    private void Window1_SourceInitialized(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        WindowInteropHelper helper = new WindowInteropHelper(this);
        HwndSource source = HwndSource.FromHwnd(helper.Handle);
        source.AddHook(WndProc);    
    }
    
    const int WM_SYSCOMMAND = 0x0112;
    const int SC_MOVE = 0xF010;
    
    private IntPtr WndProc(IntPtr hwnd, int msg, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam,  ref bool handled)
    {
    
       switch(msg)
       {
          case WM_SYSCOMMAND:
              int command = wParam.ToInt32() & 0xfff0;
              if (command == SC_MOVE)
              {
                 handled = true;
              }
              break;
          default:
              break;
       }
       return IntPtr.Zero;
    }
