Why does it not work to use Application.Exit() in C-tor

[Tony Johansson]

What is the reason that the C-tor must return before the Application.Exit()
work.
So if I just put the Application.Exit() in the Form_Load it works but not
in the C-tor.

Application.Exit() just signal all forms to closed itself. If you put
Application.Exit() in the form constructor, the form cannot receive that
message because it does not complete instantiate itself (message pump
have not yet running).

Try:

Environment.Exit(0);
