I suspect you want to set Console.TreatCtrlCAsInput to true. (Assuming you don't want this to terminate the app.)

Check out Console.TreatControlCAsInput property;

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the combination of the Control modifier key and C console key (Ctrl+C) is treated as ordinary input or as an interruption that is handled by the operating system.
