    You’ll need to record when the mouse is down and up using the MouseDown and MouseUp events:

    private bool mouseIsDown = false;
    private Point firstPoint;
    
    private void Form1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        firstPoint = e.Location;
        mouseIsDown = true;
    }
    
    private void Form1_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        mouseIsDown = false;
    }
    

    As you can see, the first point is being recorded, so you can then use the MouseMove event as follows:

    private void Form1_MouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        if (mouseIsDown)
        {
            // Get the difference between the two points
            int xDiff = firstPoint.X - e.Location.X;
            int yDiff = firstPoint.Y - e.Location.Y;
    
            // Set the new point
            int x = this.Location.X - xDiff;
            int y = this.Location.Y - yDiff;
            this.Location = new Point(x, y);
        }
    }
