If you are using .NET 4.5 or later, you can use async/await:

var progress = new Progress(value => progressBar.Value = value);
await Task.Run(() =>
{
    for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
    {
        ((IProgress)progress).Report(i);
        Thread.Sleep(100);
    }
});

You need to mark your method with async keyword to be able to use await, for example:

private async void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
