Did you read the error? ive never done any .NET coding but it looks to me like it cant overwrite the file that already exists. Maybe you should add some code to see if file exists prior to saving that file name/location?

Can you execute the downloaded file manually?

Oh wow I can't.

To sum it up.

There are a lot of possibilities:
- The file is corrupted at the server side
- The file is corrupted because of downloading
- The file needs framework or runtime to run
- The file needs other dependent file (.dll, config file, etc...)
. And more...

Anyway, thanks for your help.

First thing first, we need to find a cause. Can you compare the filesize of your uploaded
file and with your downloaded file? I just checked "http://ge.tt". It is some kind of file hosting
site. I doubt the link you are trying to download is a direct download link.

Wow it was me uploading to ge.tt that created the error.
Shitty web

I'm just going to use another uploading website.

Why don't you setup a local web server to test? Then, have your program
download http://127.0.0.1/download/filename.exe
