VB.Net | How to download a file silently - Sunlight - 04-27-2013

In this tutorial I will show you how to download a file silently. That means your not going to use process.start("LINK") because that will open a a new page.

So go to your code and go on the very top of your code and import this code:

Code:
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Net

Then add a button to your form and double click it and add this code:

Code:
My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile(Download Link Here", Application.StartupFolder)

Pretty easy code. I wrote this my self, no C+P was involved like Hyphen.
