I have a security program for my schools. What i need, I keep my Windows form up until I'm allowed to. I can partially do with the following codes..

<code>
private static readonly IntPtr HWND_TOPMOST = new IntPtr(-1);
private const UInt32 SWP_NOSIZE = 0x0001;
private const UInt32 SWP_NOMOVE = 0x0002;
private const UInt32 TOPMOST_FLAGS = SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE;

[DllImport("user32.dll")] 
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
public static extern bool SetWindowPos(IntPtr hWnd, IntPtr hWndInsertAfter, int X, int Y, int cx, int cy, uint uFlags);

SetWindowPos(this.Handle, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, TOPMOST_FLAGS);</code>

But the above code. Does not work in task view(windows 10) preview

WinForms has a TopMost property. Is that not enough? – Steve Sep 13 '18 at 07:31
I tried it unfortunately. – serkan özer Sep 13 '18 at 07:41
