Answer 1

The solution to close a window in wpf that that worked for me is not answered here so i thought i would add my solution too.

        private static Window GetWindow(DependencyObject sender)
        {
            Window window = null;
            if (sender is Window)
                window = (Window)sender;
            if (window == null)
                window = Window.GetWindow(sender);
            return window;
        }
        private void CloseWindow(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            var button = (Button)sender as DependencyObject;

            Window window = GetWindow(button);
                if (window != null)
                    window.Close();
                   // window.Visibility = Visibility.Hidden; 
           // choose between window.close or set window.visibility to close or hide the window.

            //            }
        }

Add CloseWindow event to the button in you window as following.
