C# - how do you stop a timer?

Question

I know it sounds stupid, but I've tried everything to stop a timer, but the timer won't stop. I'm working on a game and i would appreciate if someone could tell me how to stop a timer.

Answer 1

If you are using System.Timers.Timer stopping is performed by one of the options:

//options 1 timer.Enabled = false //option 2 timer.Stop() 

if you are using System.Threading.Timer, use this method

timer.Change(Timeout.Infinite , Timeout.Infinite) 

if you are using System.Windows.Forms.Timer, use this method

timer.Stop();
