Web Forms run in the browser while Windows Forms run like a separate
"application". Web Forms are more limited than Windows Forms because
they need a connection to the network/internet, Windows Forms
applications can run without any connection. Windows Forms applications
are the preferred way for applications running locally without permanent
connection, web forms are often used in companies where every client has
a permanent connection.
 
Hi Herfried,

I was making a long message, but thought why, you did it already

Some little additions more for you than the OP.
Web Forms run in the browser while Windows Forms run like a separate
"application". Web Forms are more limited than Windows Forms because
they need a connection to the network/internet, Windows Forms
applications can run without any connection.

Windows forms applications can run every where, where you can place the
program on a .Net client.
You can use a webservice for your connection if it is on the other end of
the world.

Windows Forms applications
are the preferred way for applications running locally without permanent
connection, web forms are often used in companies where every client has
a permanent connection.

Webforms are in my opinion for the whole world, while a window form is for a
more closed group.

(This is not the old asp approach where the webform was also used for
distributable reasons).
