You can't move or easily change the standard window components, such as the close button - I think the only way you are going to be able to do that is to remove the standard components and emulate them in your own code.

Hide the default Widget button and make a labellink as 'X' and onClick Event code will be 'this.close'.

Solution 2

on the form > formborderstyle select none> then create a button that you like then position it
then the code behind is either this.Close(); or Application.Exit();

you need to make the side of the form transparent and you can place the button on the transparent portion of the form that makes it like it is in the outside part of the form
