I can't perform any actions under the OnClosing or Form1_FormClosing events. I've tried 5 different ways of doing it, none of them take effect.

I've even downloaded a software example which was meant to show how the line of code provided would perform. I received no prompt on whether I wanted to close the form or not... So I'm starting to think there might be some settings on my computer which doesn't allow such actions to complete.

Has anybody read, heard or experienced anything like this happening? If so; how does one fix it?

Thanks in advance,

I've rebooted 5 times since the last event occured. I'm going to reinstall windows now and see if it'll fix it.

Just give this a try: theNameOfForm.Close(); or this.Close(); and see if that helps. If that still doesn't work...there is definitely something wrong with your Visual Studio. :)
