Main:
FTPWebRequest allows us to easily download a file from FTP server.See this below sample Code,

FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("ftp://netprogramminghelp.com/public_html/" +"sample.txt" ); request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile; request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("ftpuser", "ftppass"); FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream(); StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(responseStream);   StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter("C://Sample.txt"); //location in local machine writer.Write(reader.ReadToEnd());   writer.Close(); reader.Close(); response.Close();
