This is not a good idea. If a user does not save a file but is about to loose some results of work, changes, you should detect this situation and warn the user, for example: "You changes are not saved. Do you really want to close this window?" or something like that. If the user cancels operation, nothing changes; it the user conform loosing the changes, they should be lost. Same thing about saving a file replacing existing file. The appropriate warning is the standard feature of the save file dialog; please look properly.

Don't frustrate the users by something they won't expect, keep sanity.

You don't say what you're using ( winforms, etc ), but most frameworks have an event for a form closing, which you can handle and prompt to save

That does not answer my question ( winforms or WPF ), but my answer is still correct
