I always fail to do my laundry because i get sucked into my computer so i thoughtd I'd program something to help me out a little bit. yet I cant get the progress bars to run for anything.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace Laundry_Helper
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            timer2.Enabled = true;
            timer2.Start();
            button2.Enabled = false;

        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            
        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            timer1.Enabled = true;
            timer1.Start();
            button1.Enabled = false;
        }

        private void progressBar2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (progressBar2.Value == 3600000)
            {
                System.Media.SystemSounds.Beep.Play();
                progressBar2.Value = 0;
                timer2.Enabled = false;
                timer2.Stop();
                button2.Enabled = true;

            }
        }

        private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            progressBar1.Maximum = 1800000;
            progressBar1.Minimum = 0;
        }

        private void timer2_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            progressBar2.Maximum = 3600000;
            progressBar2.Minimum = 0;
        }

        private void progressBar1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (progressBar1.Value == 1800000)
            {
                System.Media.SystemSounds.Beep.Play();
                progressBar1.Value = 0;
                timer1.Enabled = false;
                timer1.Stop();
                button1.Enabled = true;
            }

        }
    }
}

And the Timers go in milliseconds right?

There are two progress bars One for The Washing Cycle one for the Drying
And Two Timers for each.

This is an example how it should be done. If you have any questions regarding this solution, feel free to ask.

using System;

using System.Windows.Forms;


namespace Laundry_Helper

{

    public partial class Form1 : Form

    {

        private const int washingTime = 3600; //set our washing time in seconds

        private const int dryingTime = 1800; //set our drying time in seconds


        private double washingDuration; //this variable will hold the washing duration time

        private double dryingDuration; //this variable will hold the drying duration time


        public Form1()

        {

            InitializeComponent();

            InitCustomComponents(); //Let's initialize our custom settings

        }


        private void InitCustomComponents()

        {

            pbWashing.Minimum = 0;

            pbWashing.Maximum = 100;


            pbDrying.Minimum = 0;

            pbDrying.Maximum = 100;


            tmrWashing.Interval = 1000; //tick interval should be 1 second

            tmrDrying.Interval = 1000; //tick interval should be 1 second

        }


        private void tmrWashing_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            if (pbWashing.Value < 100) //if progress is not 100% complete

            {

                washingDuration += (100f / washingTime); //increase wasing duration

                pbWashing.Value = (int)washingDuration; //convert wasing duration to int and set pb value

            }

            else

            {

                pbWashing.Value = 100; //set pb value to 100%

                System.Media.SystemSounds.Beep.Play(); //Play the beep sound

                tmrWashing.Enabled = false; //stop the timer

                btnStartWashing.Enabled = true; //Enabled 'Start wasing' button

            }

        }


        private void tmrDrying_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            if (pbDrying.Value < 100) //if progress is not 100% complete

            {

                dryingDuration += (100f / dryingTime); //increase drying duration

                pbDrying.Value = (int)dryingDuration; //convert drying duration to int and set pb value

            }

            else

            {

                pbDrying.Value = 100; //set pb value to 100%

                System.Media.SystemSounds.Beep.Play(); //Play the beep sound

                tmrDrying.Enabled = false; //stop the timer

                btnStartDrying.Enabled = true; //Enabled 'Start drying' button

            }

        }


        private void btnStartWashing_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            pbWashing.Value = 0; //reset progress bar value to zero

            washingDuration = 0; //reset washing duration to zero

            tmrWashing.Enabled = true; //start the timer

            btnStartWashing.Enabled = false; //disable the 'Start washing' button

        }


        private void btnStartDrying_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            pbDrying.Value = 0; //reset progress bar value to zero

            dryingDuration = 0; //reset drying duration to zero

            tmrDrying.Enabled = true; //start the timer

            btnStartDrying.Enabled = false; //disable the 'Start drying' button

        }

    }
