TreeView is a UI control. You can only create and manipulate UI controls on a UI thread, so what you're trying to do is not possible.

What you want to do is do all of the time-consuming work on the background thread, and then "call back" to the UI thread to manipulate the UI. This is actually quite easy:

void Background_Method(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
{
    // ... time consuming stuff...

    // call back to the window to do the UI-manipulation
    this.BeginInvoke(new MethodInvoker(delegate {
        TreeView tv = new TreeView();
        // etc, manipulate
    }));
}

I may have got the syntax wrong for BeginInvoke (it's off the top of my head), but there you go anyway...
