Answer 1

here is the way

Click to copy

string url = "https://www.digikala.com/";

using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient())
{
   using (HttpResponseMessage response = client.GetAsync(url).Result)
   {
      using (HttpContent content = response.Content)
      {
         string result = content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
      }
   }
}

and result variable will contains the page as HTML then you can save it to a file like this

Click to copy

System.IO.File.WriteAllText("path/filename.html", result);

NOTE you have to use the namespace

Click to copy

using System.Net.Http;

Update if you are using legacy VS then you can see this answer for using WebClient and WebRequest for the same purpose, but Actually updating your VS is a better solution.
