            }
        }

But selectedTVi shows NULL.What can i do?

TreeViews display lists of items, not lists of TreeViewItems.

TreeViewItem.SelectedItem is the element that is selected, if your tree view has a collection of Car objects that it is displaying, the SelectedItem will be of type Car.

try this

private void treeview1_SelectedItemChanged(object sender, RoutedPropertyChangedEventArgs<object> e)
        {
            if (treeview1.SelectedItem != null)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(treeview1.SelectedItem.ToString());
            }
        }

im pretty sure the SelectedItem is the object you are looking for.
