Solution 1

Try the Application.Exit[^] method.

An alternative is to hide Form1 when you display Form2, but use ShowDialog rather than the Show method. You can then use Close on Form1 when Form2 closes.

Or you could add an event handler in Form1 for the Form2 instance FormClosed event, and close Form1.

To stops all running message loops on all threads and closes all windows of the application you should use Application.Exit() function. I am suspecting you are using this.Close() function. lets take some difference between Application.Exit() and Close() function.Take a look there-MSDN-[this.close() Vs Application.Exit()][^] for more references
