<br> is a HTML tag (break) it is in code from original source (i think you have copy the code from a web page), in c# just comment the line

It looks like you have found some code on the internet, and just copy'n'pasted it from the webpage to your application. That isn't going to work: partly because the code isn't complete (the ellipsises indicate "other code" rather than being a part of the code you need), partly because it contains info for you, not the compiler (look at the using statements at the top which contain "extra info" which will not compile), and partly because it contains what appears to be HTML code which the C# compiler will not understand - specifically the <br> you have noticed.

Don't just copy code blindly: look at it, read it, understand it before you try to use it. Otherwise you won't be able to get it working with your app, and you put yourself at risk of running code which does something nasty to your computer. Always read code carefully, and make absolutely sure you know what it is doing before you add it to your application!
