When you create an empty WinForms application with Visual Studio, the template has the STAThread attribute in the main application class.
I have been reading some docs about it, but I'm not sure if I understood it at all.
Really I have some questions about it:
To quote from an MSDN blog,
When the STAThreadAttribute is applied, it changes the apartment state of the current thread to be single threaded. Without getting into a huge discussion about COM and threading, this attribute ensures the communication mechanism between the current thread and other threads that may want to talk to it via COM. When you're using Windows Forms, depending on the feature you're using, it may be using COM interop in order to communicate with operating system components. Good examples of this are the Clipboard and the File Dialogs.
