What is the difference between a user control and a windows form in Visual Studio – C#?
Put very simply:
User controls are a way of making a custom, reusable component. A user control can contain other controls but must be hosted by a form.
Windows forms are the container for controls, including user controls. While it contains many similar attributes as a user control, it’s primary purpose is to host controls.
