Set the sort value programmatically:

this.dataGridView1.Columns["Priority"].SortMode = DataGridViewColumnSortMode.NotSortable;

or for the whole DataGrid (I am on my mac and dont have my VM MS Machine up so something like):

foreach(dataGridView.Columns x in this.dataGridView1.Columns)
{
    x.SortMode = DataGridViewColumnSortMode.NotSortable;
}

This thread describes some possible solutions:

  1. Use the ColumnAdded event:

    private void MyDGV_ColumnAdded(object sender, DataGridViewColumnEventArgs e)
{
    e.Column.SortMode = DataGridViewColumnSortMode.NotSortable;
 }

  2. Override OnColumnAdded:

    protected override void OnColumnAdded(DataGridViewColumnEventArgs e)
{
    base.OnColumnAdded(e);
    e.Column.SortMode = DataGridViewColumnSortMode.NotSortable;
}

Loop over gridview columns and set the SortMode of each column as this - 

DataGridViewColumnSortMode.NotSortable

You can also do this via Designer :: Go to Columns collection > Set SortMode as NotSortable
