For WinForms you can use

bool maximized = this.WindowState == System.Windows.Forms.FormWindowState.Maximized;

to check if the window is maximized.

Events SizeChangedand Resizeshould record all window state changes.

WinForms

// Code which is effective as pressing the maximize button
myWindow.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;

, :

if (myWindow.WindowState == FormWindowState.Maximized) { ... }

In WPF, you can use the WindowState property :

myWindow.WindowState = WindowState.Maximized;

Of course, you can request this property to get the current state of the window:

if (myWindow.WindowState == WindowState.Maximized) {
    // Window is currently maximized.
}
