Disable fullscreen/maximise button in UWP-applicat

Question

I'm working on a Universal Windows Platform-application for desktop platforms. How can I disable/remove the maximise-button from a <page> or <application> in Windows 10?

Answer 1

There could be another workaround for this : Although you cannot disable the AppTitle bar but you can try entering your view to full view so that it covers up the Title bar and then you can add a custom title bar if you need to customize the functionality.

Answer 2

We can hide the maximize and minimize buttons by the ResizeMode property in our .xaml like this

ResizeMode="NoResize" //CanMinimize || CanResize || CanResizeWithGrip

Resize mode will allow any of the four values for the Window element in the form.

Answer 3

You cannot. I didn't see any option to disable these buttons. You can only change their colors.

ApplicationViewTitleBar titlebar = ApplicationView.GetForCurrentView().TitleBar;

titlebar.ButtonBackgroundColor = Windows.UI.Color.FromArgb(255, 126, 188, 66);
titlebar.ButtonForegroundColor = Windows.UI.Colors.White;

Answer 4

If the objective of removing the Maximize/Minimize button is to run the app in Kiosk mode then you can see something like https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/manage/set-up-a-kiosk-for-windows-10-for-desktop-editions

However, you cannot remove these things programatically
