Hi @Jassim Al Rahma , you could try the following code to get what you wanted.

HttpClient client = new HttpClient();  
  
            using (var stream = await client.GetStreamAsync(url))  
            {  
                using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())  
                {  
                    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];  
                    Console.WriteLine("DownloadStarted");  
                    totalBytes = client.MaxResponseContentBufferSize;      
                    for (; ; )  
                    {  
                        int bytesRead = await stream.ReadAsync(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);  
                        if (bytesRead == 0)  
                        {  
                            await Task.Yield();  
                            break;  
                        }     
                        receivedBytes += bytesRead;     
                        int received = unchecked((int)receivedBytes);  
                        int total = unchecked((int)totalBytes);   
                        double percentage = ((float)received) / total;  
                        Console.WriteLine(received / (1024) + "Kb / " + total / (1024 )+" Kb");  
                        Console.WriteLine("Completed : " + percentage + "%");  
                    }  
                }  
            }  

Or you could refer to How to get accurate download/upload speed in C#.NET?.
