I think this conclusively proves that whether BackgroundWorker runs as STA or MTA has nothing to do with my problem

your very first post had this:
"The code that I have developed based on the above thread works 100%
of the time if it is executed inside of the WPF main application thread.
But it fails 100% of the time if it is executed inside of a worker thread.
The code fails on BitmapEncoder.Save(), throwing a "Cannot write to the
stream" exception. But I have to execute this code inside of a worker
thread because I have to display a progress bar: I'm updating the Copyright
metadata in a batch operation for thousands of images!"

That's what I was addressing...

So the real question is, why doesn't BitmapEncoder.Save() have the actual image data to work with?

how to do basic things like extending the namespace of XAML

xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WPFTester"

    <code>// Note you can use BackgroundWorker or WPFSTABackgroundWorker - they both work the same</code>

    WPFSTABackgroundWorker bw = new WPFSTABackgroundWorker();
    bw.WorkerReportsProgress = true;
    bw.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(bw_DoWork);
    bw.ProgressChanged += new ProgressChangedEventHandler(bw_ProgressChanged);
    bw.RunWorkerCompleted += new RunWorkerCompletedEventHandler(bw_RunWorkerCompleted);
    bw.RunWorkerAsync();

...

        private void bw_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
        {
            <code>// Called on background thread - CANNOT access UI objects directly here!</code>

            WPFSTABackgroundWorker bw = sender as WPFSTABackgroundWorker;

            for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
            {
                bw.ReportProgress(i * 10);
                Thread.Sleep(500);
            }
        }

        void bw_ProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            <code>// Called on UI thread - CAN access UI objects directly here!</code>

            progrssBar.Value = e.ProgressPercentage;
        }

        void bw_RunWorkerCompleted(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)
        {
            <code>// Called on UI thread - CAN access UI objects directly here!</code>

            MyScaleButton.Content = "Thread completed!";
        }

I don't know how to get XAML to recognize my Page.Resources block when it is no longer BackgroundWorker.

            WorkerSupportsCancellation="True"
            DoWork="BackgroundWorker_DoWork"

t does not put the actual ShipperID value in as the name of the node, it shows "SupplierID". This is the same for all the nodes. How can I bind the Header of the treeview items so that it shows the values?

I actually said in the last part of my messge that I've tried that, but it then shows the shipperID, name, address all together

Is there anything else I can bind to?
