In the treeView create event PreviewKeyDown="TreeView_PreviewKeyDown"

    private void TreeView_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, KeyRoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Handled = true;
    }

This will do the trick.

No, if you do that none other component will receive the keypress event... I need to handle it on a sub element.

example

 Treeview
        TreeViewItem
                TextBox <-- here i want to handle the event
