                   Byte[] buffer = new Byte[Length];
                   int bytesRead = responseStream.Read(buffer, 0, Length);
                   while (bytesRead > 0)
                   {
                       writeStream.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);

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?
