am trying to view my windows forms in a maximized window but i want it to automatically do that the moment it loads not by clicking the maximizing button

What I have tried:

public partial class AdminPage : Form
    {
        public AdminPage()
        {
            InitializeComponent();                    
        }


        private void GoFullscreen(bool fullscreen)
        {
            if (fullscreen)
            {
                this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal;
                this.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.None;
                this.Bounds = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds;
            }
            else
            {
                this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
                this.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.Sizable;
            }
        }

Just add the setting to the form constructor after the call to InitializeComponent:
C#
public AdminPage()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
}
