I have two exceptions here. Not sure why they occur because I use Form.Invoke to run UI updates on the UI thread. So first,

This triggers the exception "Cannot access a disposed object" on this fragment
this.Invoke((Action)(() =>
{
toolStripProgressBar1.Increment(1);
toolStripStatusLabel1.Text = "Processing...";
}));
If this fragment is commented out, I run into the next problem - a TargetInvocationException on Program level.
The inner exception of this is an InvalidOperationException.
The code is quite simple, so it should not be hard to implement this, I just new a few hints to move on.
Visual Studio project files.
If the user hits the exit button, the Close() method is called, and the UI starts getting torn down. However, your worker code keeps running and attempts to update the UI, which it can no longer do.
If you centralise all those invoke calls:
public void UpdateUI(Action action) {
if(!Exiting) this.Invoke(action);
}
you can call:
UpdateUI(() =>
{
toolStripProgressBar1.Increment(1);
toolStripStatusLabel1.Text = "Processing...";
});
(etc - all the this.Invoke calls should use UpdateUI instead)
and it should work. Also, make Exiting volatile.

Even tho I setup a background worker, I can't seem to make it not freeze the UI.
I looked around online but could not find a fix. I have tried creating basic threads and that worked but I need to also update UI stuff as it runs so thats why I switched to backgroundworkers, but if you could help me figure out how to use a basic thread and get that working that would be ok.

this.Invoke will run on the UI thread.
Look into how to use either ReportProgress or RunWorkerCompleted events of the BackgroundWorker class. The both allow you to pass data from the background thread to the UI thread.
I have a problem. I made a service which monitoring printing jobs in real time. It didn't worked perfect, but I had no big problem. Now I need to change service into Windows Forms program. And I've got a problem with threads.
Error:
System.InvalidOperationException: 'The calling thread cannot access this object because a different thread owns it.'
This error appears on string "PrintQueue.Refresh()".
I can't find where the other thread tries to run.
I tried to set the other thread and start it with MonitoringJobs() procedure but it doesn't work.

In this program I tried to get printing jobs statuses and output them in listbox1 and write results with string.Format in file.
On Form1_Load event you are adding things to your fSelectedPrinter.Listbox.
If you items you are adding are coming from a different thread, that will cause an error. Only UI thread can update objects on a form without using SynchornizationContext.
private readonly SynchronizationContext synchronizationContext;
InitializeComponent();
synchronizationContext = SynchronizationContext.Current;
Here is an example:
private async void btnListFiles1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (txtDirectory1.Text == "")
{
MessageBox.Show(InfoDialog.SELECT_DIRECTORY,PROGRAM_NAME);
return;
}
if (!Directory.Exists(txtDirectory1.Text))
{
MessageBox.Show(InfoDialog.DIRECTORY_NOT_EXIST, PROGRAM_NAME);
return;
}
try
{
string fileTypes = (txtFileTypes1.Text == "") ? "" : txtFileTypes1.Text;
string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(txtDirectory1.Text.TrimEnd(),
(fileTypes == "") ? "*.*" : fileTypes,

i am currently working on a Windows Forms App in c# which will allow the user to add or delete records. when i hit the button to display all the records written to the file the files appear, but when i try to delete by transact number i get an exception saying that "The process cannot access the the because it is being used somewhere else". i have tried putting it in a try-catch block to make sure the reader/writer will close and still not working code will be attached any help is greatly appreciated. p.s im not looking for code to finish this project just help getting by this exception and make it work like it is suppose.

I'm getting 25 results in the List postsList
How do i loop now asgain to get the next page with the next 25 results and add it to postsList and loop over and over again untill there are no more results ?
What i want to do is to delete automatic every 50 minutes the last old 25 posts.
In my other class in my project i'm posting automatic to my wall a post every minute. After 50 minutes i want to delete the last old 25 posts so on my wall will be all the time with 25 posts only.

I believe this is what you're looking for:
var client = new FacebookClient(mytokenaslip);
//1-25
dynamic result = client.Get("/me/posts", new { limit = "25", offset = "0"});
//26-50
dynamic result = client.Get("/me/posts", new { limit = "25", offset = "25"});
You can also chose to get more than 25 posts at once.
//51-100
dynamic result = client.Get("/me/posts", new { limit = "50", offset = "50"});
You can use a "recursive function" to get all entries, and the "next" parameter in the API result includes the API call for the next batch of results: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/using-graph-api#paging
Be careful though, you may hit an API limit if you try to do this too fast and if there are too many results. Also, since you want to delete old entries and deleting one entry is one API call, you should try with a timeout after each call just to make sure not to hit a limit.
Make sure you learn and understand how recursive functions work, here´s one of countless threads about that: Help with Creating a Recursive Function C#
I've got a weird issue here. I'll start by explaining my program:
I have a C# application. The main goal of the program is to get information about a book based on its ISBN. The ISBN is passed to the program via a TCP/IP scanner on an Android device. The ISBN is then put into a valid URL which is used to grab the XML data from ISBNDB.com.
The issue that I am having is this:
When I query an ISBN typed into a TextBox, the program works fine. When I query an ISBN scanned from the reader, it returns 'No Results'
I have implemented various ways to try and get to the bottom of this case. Right before the XML is read, I have a message box show me the XML that it received:
As you can see, it shows no results. However, when I visit the URL (Also gotten from within the program):
I get this in Microsoft Edge:
Which, is exactly what I would think the application would get as well.
Does anyone know what is going on? If so, what can I do to fix it and how can my code be improved to eliminate this error?
For those interested, here is my code:

Possible Hint: Could it have something to do with how I have threads working?
*Edit: * **I have updated the code to have the barcode be put in a textBox and then used to fetch the data. This does not seem to work either because it 'Cannot access the control on a thread other than on which it was created'
If manual user input succeed while automated input fail, the simplest hack is just replacing the automated input to a call to manual control BeginInvoke. For your code this would be :
textBarcode.BeginInvoke(new Action(() => {
textBarcode.Text = bCode;
GetXMLBarcodeData();
}));
