How to close a Form with a button and open another Form

Question

So what happened is that I am creating my first ever UI program and when I go into the settings app then I click exit. What I want to happen is to come back to another form but it closes the application altogether.

I have already tried this.Close(); but that is the thing that is causing the problem is what I feel.

   Login log = new Login();
   this.Close();
   log.Show();

I wanted it to show another form which is called 'Login' but it just closed the entire application.

Try

Me.Close();

we don't use "this" in windows form applications

Does that work for c#? – Codepage Cynic Jun 09 '19 at 08:20
Because in my c# project, it says that it is not in the context – Codepage Cynic Jun 09 '19 at 08:21

No it does not. This will not compile and it's blatantly wrong. – Joelius Jun 09 '19 at 08:34

You are confusing VB.NET with C#. – Camilo Terevinto Jun 09 '19 at 08:37
