You can handle the FormClosing event event handler like this

private void Form_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
    //there can be other reasons for form close make sure X button is clicked
    // if close button clicked
    if (e.CloseReason == CloseReason.UserClosing)
    {
        e.Cancel = true;
    }
}
