Hello,
I started today to make an application for windows store (basic stuff - just learning) and i can't do to work the back button. I started with a blank app called "FirstApp" who generated automatically "MainPage.xaml". After this i add a new page (blank page) called "SecondPage.xaml" where i add an app bar and a back button. The problem is that when i write code on this to come back from second page to main page it doesn't work.
Code for button is:

C#

private void GoBack(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
           if (Frame != null && Frame.CanGoBack)
                Frame.Navigate(typeof (MainPage));
        }

The code can be downloaded from the link bellow for who wants to verify in Visual Studio. I used Visual Studio 2012.

Can anyoane help me to solve this problem please?
