I suspect with WS_CAPTION there will always be a close button (and title bar) but you can grey the close button with some effort. Title bar is useful for being able to move the window around, even a login window. CreateWindowEx seems to need WS_SYSMENU to get system menu, depending on other settings.

You can find out what's on the title bar but apparently you can't change it using TITLEBARINFO.
