If the operation raises an exception that your code does not handle, the BackgroundWorker catches the exception and passes it into the RunWorkerCompleted event handler, where it is exposed as the Error property of System.ComponentModel.RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs. If you are running under the Visual Studio debugger, the debugger will break at the point in the DoWork event handler where the unhandled exception was raised. If you have more than one BackgroundWorker, you should not reference any of them directly, as this would couple your DoWork event handler to a specific instance of BackgroundWorker. Instead, you should access your BackgroundWorker by casting the sender parameter in your DoWork event handler

x = Util.ProgressDialog.Show(owner, MyWorkerMethod, "Doing something") as MyResultObject;

private void MyWorkerMethod(BackgroundWorker wkr, DoWorkEventArgs e)
{
  // ...
  e.Result = ...
}

private void backgroundWorker1_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
        {
            ChangeMyText("Privet");
        }

        private void ChangeMyText(string myText)
        {
            label1.Text = myText;
        }

label1.Text = myText;

label1.Invoke((Action)delegate
      {
          label1.Text = myText;
      });
