Minimize on FormClose prevents computer shutdown

I have a simple Form-Based .NET application. In this I capture the FormClosing Event to prevent the closing of the application, instea开发者_StackOverflowd I minimize it. The application should always be open. Here is the code I use:

private void Browser_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
    {
       e.Cancel = true;
       this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized;
       this.ShowInTaskbar = true;

    }

The problem now is that this prevents the computer from shuting down for users with non-admin rights. Anything I can do so that the computer is able to shut down and the user can`t close the application?

Change it so that it doesn't always cancel but rather first look at e.CloseReason to see why the event is being called.

See the MSDN page for the CloseReason enumeration for valid values. It includes one called WindowsShutDown, and you might want to look at TaskManagerClosing as well (if someone is trying to close the app with the taskmanager, they probably really want it to close rather than just minimize).

I found another solution for the problem. You can disable the closing button of the form, so your FormClosing event can be handled the default way

Code to disable the closing button:

protected override CreateParams CreateParams
    {
        get
        {
            CreateParams param = base.CreateParams;
            param.ClassStyle = param.ClassStyle | 0x200;
            return param;
        }
    }
