Metro App can no longer be programmatically killed?

Question

I\'m new to Win 8 Metro application development, and discovered that lots of things seem to be changed from the classic WPF.

What troubles me the most is that there\

Answer 1

Try this.. It worked

App.Current.Terminate();

Answer 2

I used crash code to exit Windows 8 Metro APP. char *p = nullptr; *p = 1;

This is what I found to close the app.

  App.Current.Exit();

Answer 4

The WinRT reference documentation for the developer preview states that:

Answer 5

As far as I know you can't close a Metro app (by design) (using the Task-Manager is the only option that works) and as far as I know there is no way to exit a Metro app programatically (by design too).

You could try to throw an unhandled exception (I wouldn't recommend that).

Answer 6

You're looking for App.Current.Exit()
