Back Button Sample

This sample demonstrates how to set up an event handler for the back button event and how to enable the title bar back button for when the app is in windowed Desktop mode.

Specifically, this sample covers:

  • Setting up an event handler for BackRequested and to navigate back in the page stack.
  • Enabling and disabling the title bar back button based on the app's internal page stack.
