Question

I need to delete some certain files, then user closes program in WPF. So I tried MDSN code from here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.application.exit.

Answer 1

you should add app_exit in your xaml code

you can just hook the event Closing on your main window like this -

And in your event do all the work you need

    private void Window_Closing(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
     MessageBox.Show("File deleted");
    var systemPath = System.Environment.GetFolderPath(
                              Environment.SpecialFolder.CommonApplicationData);

            var _directoryName1 = Path.Combine(systemPath, "RadiolocationQ");
            var temp_file = Path.Combine(_directoryName1, "temp.ini");

            if (File.Exists(temp1_file))
            {
                File.Delete(temp1_file);
            }
}
