Why does my winforms app close after a few seconds of loading?

All I do is start the window.

My code:

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Drawing;
using System;



partial class Program {
    List<Control> Elements;
    Dictionary<String, Color> ClrSchm = ColorScheme.LIGHTS_OUT;
    readonly Form Window;
    String Page = "";


    /**
    * Make a new program object.
    */
    private Program() {
        this.Elements = new List<Control>();



        this.Window = new Form();

        this.Window.ShowInTaskbar = true;
        this.Window.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterScreen;
        this.Window.MinimumSize = new Size(500, 400);
        this.Window.Text = $"{Program.NAME} ({Program.VERSION})";

        this.Window.BackColor = this.ClrSchm["background"];
        this.Window.ForeColor = this.ClrSchm["foreground"];
        this.Window.Visible = true;



        this.Elements = Program.PAGES["."];
    }





    /**
    * Main method.
    */
    static void Main() {
        Program p = new Program();
        try {
            p.Run();
        } catch(Exception EXC) {
            Program.WriteLog(EXC);
        }
    }



    /**
    * Run method.
    */
    void Run() {
        //this.UpdateElements();
        Application.Run(this.Window);
    }
}

PAGES:

/**
* Program class.
*/
partial class Program {
    private static readonly Dictionary<String, List<Control>> PAGES =
        new Dictionary<String, List<Control>>() {
            ["."] = {
                Program.ProduceButton(10, 10, text:"Settings"),
                Program.ProduceButton(10, 76, text:"New Program")
            }
        };
}

The other part of this class isn't important, as I've commented out the call to the method UpdateElements. If it is important, let me know.

So, what am I doing wrong? Why does it just load, and then close? Because the program doesn't even leave behind an EXCEPTION_LOG.txt, like Program.WriteLog should be writing.

Hi Calin,

Try adding the [STAThread] attribute to your Main function, like this:

[STAThread]
static void Main() {
}

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, this did not help. I tried putting it both above the Main method, and the method that calls Application.Run, but in both cases, it still retains the quality of loading, and "Not responding".
