    Hello,
    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

    I want to disable the minimize button in my UWP app

    I'm afraid there is not such api could disable minimize button, it was manage by system level.

    basically i don't want anyone to minimize the UWP app

    For this requirement, we have a workaround that make desktop extension part to call UWP part to foreground. And you could refer stefan's blog Global hotkey registration in UWP
    it contains code that how to call UWP part to foreground.

    Thank you.
