I am trying to download files from ftp server, its good while downloading when similar files are available in debug folder, if the similar file is not available in debug folder its skipping that file, can any one know about this problem

FtpWebRequest ftp;
                   ftp = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri(FTPAddress + file));
                   ftp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(uID, pswrd);
                   ftp.KeepAlive = false;
                   ftp.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile;
                   ftp.UseBinary = true;
                   ftp.Proxy = null;
                   ftp.UsePassive = false;
                   FtpWebResponse ftpR = (FtpWebResponse)ftp.GetResponse();
                   Stream responseStream = ftpR.GetResponseStream();
                   FileStream writeStream = new FileStream(".\\" + file, FileMode.Create);
                   int Length = 2048;
                   Byte[] buffer = new Byte[Length];
                   int bytesRead = responseStream.Read(buffer, 0, Length);
                   while (bytesRead > 0)
                   {
                       writeStream.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
                       bytesRead = responseStream.Read(buffer, 0, Length);

                   }

This is not a good question - we cannot work out from that little what you are trying to do.
Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind.
Perhaps if you post the code you are using to download it might help? Just the relevant fragments, please!

I just tried your code (slightly changed to work with my ftp):
C#
string file = @"0eeeab9f-0587-461b-b966-f12c033e704a.thumb.jpg";
string strConnect = @"ftp://[MyUsername]:[MyPassword]@ftp.Images.[MyDomain].com/Images/" + file;
FtpWebRequest ftp;
ftp = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(strConnect);
ftp.KeepAlive = false;
ftp.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile;
ftp.UseBinary = true;
ftp.Proxy = null;
ftp.UsePassive = false;
FtpWebResponse ftpR = (FtpWebResponse)ftp.GetResponse();
Stream responseStream = ftpR.GetResponseStream();
FileStream writeStream = new FileStream(".\\" + file, FileMode.Create);
int Length = 2048;
Byte[] buffer = new Byte[Length];
int bytesRead = responseStream.Read(buffer, 0, Length);
while (bytesRead > 0)
    {
    writeStream.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
    bytesRead = responseStream.Read(buffer, 0, Length);
    }
(The site specific stuff is redacted and replaced with [...])

It works fine regardless of whether the file exists in the debug folder or not.

So what am I doing that you aren't, or vice versa?

Yes.
Downloaded with just my normal exe files and no .jpg files in the folder at all. Looks fine in windows file viewer.
Delete it, place a different jpg file given the same name in the debug folder, run again. Downloaded ok, old file overwritten.

Works fine as far as I can see.

It works for me. What more can I say?
Have you tried single stepping it through the debugger?
