I need to apply theme file in windows form but I can't. When I use the code below I get error because there is no System.Windows.Application

C#

StreamResourceInfo sri = System.Windows.Application.GetResourceStream(
                new Uri("App.xaml", UriKind.Relative));
            var resources = (System.Windows.ResourceDictionary)Load(sri.Stream); 
            var app = new System.Windows.Application();
            app.Resources.MergedDictionaries.Add(resources);

Thank you

Windows Forms and WPF are two distinct technologies. You can't mix and match them. However, you can host a WPF control in a Windows Forms control (and vice-versa). See these links for more informarion:
