Can you post some code? I just tried adding this to the App.xaml.cs file in a new WPF application:

protected override void OnStartup(StartupEventArgs e)
{

    {
        this.Shutdown();
        return;
    }

    this.StartupUri = new Uri("Window1.xaml", UriKind.Relative);
    base.OnStartup(e);
}

... and it works as expected (the "Confirm Start" prompt stays open until I've responded, and if I click "No" the app shuts down).
