Add "FormClosing" event to your form. And use this code:

private void Form_Closing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
    // Remove these 2 lines if the current form is not the default form of your application.
    e.Cancel = true;
    this.Hide();
    
    LoginForm loginForm = new LoginForm();
    loginForm.Show();
}

Thanks

Okay. You are making a mistake there. When you call this.Close() FormClosing event is fired. But inside FormClosing event you've called this.Close() again which causes a stackoverflow.

Here's the working code:

private void btnPClose_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.Close();
}

private void frmProposalInProgress_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
   new frmLogin().Show();
}
