Capturing Application exit event - WinForms

Question

Is this possible to capture Windows form close event when clicked on application stop. I know application stop working but is there any method available who will fire in any case when application is closing? I found these methods from google but they are not working:

 AppDomain.CurrentDomain.ProcessExit += new EventHandler(CurrentDomain_ProcessExit);

or

  Application.ApplicationExit += new EventHandler(this.OnApplicationExit);

Is it possible to get close event when click on application stop button?

You mean closing browser? You need to check javascript onUnload method() or onbeforeunload() method. — Anuraj

what you mean by asp.net windows forms? ASP.Net running on WinForms? — Anuraj

Let's see if I have this straight. A.) Your program is crashing, or not responding, so you have to close it with task manager or something, and you still want an event to fire before it closes. Is this correct. Or B.) Do you simply want an event to fire when the program ends normally? What, exactly is an application stop button? — General Grey

In Program.cs file, you must have those methods before Application.Run :

    [STAThread]
    static void Main()
    {
        Application.EnableVisualStyles();
        Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
        Application.ApplicationExit += new EventHandler(Application_ApplicationExit);
        AppDomain.CurrentDomain.ProcessExit += new EventHandler(CurrentDomain_ProcessExit);
        Application.Run(new MainForm());
    }

You can also use the Disposed event on the MainForm (the form used in Application.Run method).
