How do I hide maximize, minimize and close box at the form title bar?

To disable the maximize box at the form title bar, set the Maximize property of the form to false.

To disable the minimize box at the form title bar, set the Minimize property of the form to false.

You can not hide only the close box from the form title bar using the form’s property.

Similarly, you can not only hide maximize or minimize boxes from the title window.

You can hide maximize and minimize boxes from the title bar by setting the FormBorderStyle property of the form to the FixedToolWindow or the SizableToolWindow. But remember that with FormBorderStyle set to the FixedToolWindow or SizableToolWindow, the form will not be displayed in the Windows task bar or in the window that appears when the user presses ALT+TAB.

You can hide the Control box from the title bar of the form by setting the ControlBox property of the form to false. This will hide the control box and system menu from the form window.
