Вызовите метод CancelAsync на BackgroundWorker и дождитесь его завершения. Создайте свой рабочий код, чтобы он часто проверял флаг отмены.
Если нет никаких отрицательных побочных эффектов, если поток продолжает работать некоторое время, и он никоим образом не будет ссылаться на пользовательский элемент управления или любой ресурс, которым он владеет, вы можете избавиться от пользовательского элемента управления после запроса завершения потока .
