如果你需要设置头文件和cookie来下载文件，你需要做一些稍微不同的事情。这里有一个例子……

// Pass in the HTTPGET URL, Full Path w/Filename, and a populated Cookie Container (optional)
private async Task DownloadFileRequiringHeadersAndCookies(string getUrl, string fullPath, CookieContainer cookieContainer, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
{
    cookieContainer ??= new CookieContainer();  // TODO: FILL ME AND PASS ME IN

    using (var handler = new HttpClientHandler()
    {
        UseCookies = true,
        CookieContainer = cookieContainer, // This will, both, use the cookies passed in, and update/create cookies from the response
        ServerCertificateCustomValidationCallback = (message, cert, chain, errors) => true, // use only if it gets angry about the SSL endpoints
        AllowAutoRedirect = true,
    })
    {
        using (var client = new HttpClient(handler))
        {
            SetHeaders(client);

            using (var response = await client.GetAsync(getUrl, cancellationToken))
            {
                if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
                {
                    var bytes = await response.Content.ReadAsByteArrayAsync(cancellationToken);
                    await File.WriteAllBytesAsync(fullPath, bytes, cancellationToken); // This overwrites the file
                }
                else
                {
                    // TODO: HANDLE ME
                    throw new FileNotFoundException();
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

并且，要添加你需要的header…

private void SetHeaders(HttpClient client)
{
    // TODO: SET ME
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Connection.Add("keep-alive");
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) ...");
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept", "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9, ...");
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.AcceptEncoding.Add(new StringWithQualityHeaderValue("gzip"));
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.AcceptEncoding.Add(new StringWithQualityHeaderValue("deflate"));
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.AcceptLanguage.Add(new StringWithQualityHeaderValue("en-US"));
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.AcceptLanguage.Add(new StringWithQualityHeaderValue("en", .9));
    ...
}

旁白:你可以通过以下方式填充cookie容器:

循环遍历前一个响应的cookie。 这个响应可以来自HttpAgilityPack，或者WebClient，或者Puppeteer(有很多选项) 手动输入(来自配置值或硬编码值)。

static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            DownloadFileAsync().GetAwaiter();
 
            Console.WriteLine("File was downloaded");
            Console.Read();
        }
 
        private static async Task DownloadFileAsync()
        {
            WebClient client = new WebClient();
            await client.DownloadFileTaskAsync(new Uri("http://somesite.com/myfile.txt"), "mytxtFile.txt");
        }

使用System.Net.WebClient.DownloadFile:

string remoteUri = "http://www.contoso.com/library/homepage/images/";
string fileName = "ms-banner.gif", myStringWebResource = null;

// Create a new WebClient instance.
using (WebClient myWebClient = new WebClient())
{
    myStringWebResource = remoteUri + fileName;
    // Download the Web resource and save it into the current filesystem folder.
    myWebClient.DownloadFile(myStringWebResource, fileName);        
}

这是我的解决方案，效果很好:

public static void DownloadFile(string url, string pathToSaveFile)
        {
            ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;
            // or: ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = (SecurityProtocolType)3072;

            using (WebDownload client = new WebDownload())
            {
                client.Headers["User-Agent"] = "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36";
                client.DownloadFile(new Uri(url), pathToSaveFile);
            }
        }
    
    public class WebDownload : WebClient
        {
            protected override WebRequest GetWebRequest(Uri address)
            {
                HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)base.GetWebRequest(address);
                if (request != null)
                {
                    request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate;
                }
                return request;
            }
        }

WebRequest, WebClient和ServicePoint在。net 6(源代码- 2021年11月)中已经过时。

使用System.Net.Http.HttpClient类代替:

using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
    using (var s = client.GetStreamAsync("https://via.placeholder.com/150"))
    {
        using (var fs = new FileStream("localfile.jpg", FileMode.OpenOrCreate))
        {
            s.Result.CopyTo(fs);
        }
    }
}

相同代码的异步版本:

using var client = new HttpClient();
using var s = await client.GetStreamAsync("https://via.placeholder.com/150");
using var fs = new FileStream("localfile.jpg", FileMode.OpenOrCreate);
await s.CopyToAsync(fs);

包括这个命名空间

using System.Net;

异步下载，并在UI线程本身中放置一个ProgressBar来显示下载的状态

private void BtnDownload_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    using (WebClient wc = new WebClient())
    {
        wc.DownloadProgressChanged += wc_DownloadProgressChanged;
        wc.DownloadFileAsync (
            // Param1 = Link of file
            new System.Uri("http://www.sayka.com/downloads/front_view.jpg"),
            // Param2 = Path to save
            "D:\\Images\\front_view.jpg"
        );
    }
}
// Event to track the progress
void wc_DownloadProgressChanged(object sender, DownloadProgressChangedEventArgs e)
{
    progressBar.Value = e.ProgressPercentage;
}
