Disable "first column header selected" in a datagridview

Question

How to not having the header of the first column selected in a datagridview considering that the SelectionMode must be set to FullRowSelected .

I tried EnableHeadersVisualStyles to false but it didn't work.

Have you considered simply changing the grid's headers SelectionBackColor to the default “Control” color… something like…

dataGridView1.ColumnHeadersDefaultCellStyle.SelectionBackColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Control);
