Closing a window in WPF

Question

I want to close a window in WPF after clicking a button that sends me to another window.

I tried with win3.Close(); but it doesn't work. This is the Main Window that references to the second window.

private void Button_Click_1(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
 {
   Window2 win3 = new Window2();
   win3.Show();
 }

Or it should be hidden?

Answer 1

You only need to input this.Close(); before showing next window.

private void Button_Click_1(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

 {
   Window2 win3 = new Window2();
   this.Close();
   win3.Show();
 }
