Question

I’m trying to close my Wp7 app when the back is pressed in emulator.I have tried the code on that page from which I would close the whole app.the code is given below:

protected override void OnBackKeyPress(System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
    {
        base.OnBackKeyPress(e);

        if (NavigationService.CanGoBack)
        {
            while (NavigationService.RemoveBackEntry() != null)
            {
                NavigationService.RemoveBackEntry();
            }
        }
    }

Help needed !
Thanks in advance!

First of all, There is no way to close wp7 application programatically.

And to do this you need not override back key press. When in the first page(ideally the home page or main page), pressing back key automatically closes the application.
