No. Session is a web concept.

The easiest way to do this would be to handle the main form Closing event, and log off then.

What should i write in the closing event?
Please share the code or give some link so that i can understand this and implement this.

Along the lines of "if user logged in, log him out"?
I can't give you the code, as I have no idea what login system you have come up with...

No there is no session support in Windows forms. Yuu can build your own support though by storing information in a database / file.
Not fool proof but could work.
