<p><strong>What I Tried:</strong></p>

<p>I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I tried different stuff like : </p>

<p>1.</p>

<pre><code>await Task.Run(() =&gt; Parallel.ForEach(strings, s =&gt;
{
    DoSomething(s);
})); 
</code></pre>

<p>2.</p>

<pre><code>var tasks = userLangs.Select(async l =&gt;
{
    //rest of the code here
}
await Task.WhenAll(tasks); 
</code></pre>

<p>3.</p>

<pre><code>var tasks = userLangs.Select(async l =&gt;
{
    //rest of the code here
}
await Task.WhenAll(tasks);

await ctx.SaveChangesAsync().ConfigureAwait(false); 
</code></pre>

<ol start="4">
<li>Other trial and error attempts, that i do not rember now</li>
</ol>

<p>What am I doing wrong?</p>
