Wel, you know the length you copied,
why not simply subtract that length?

Hi,

You need to do your own copying using Streams. For every chunk of data
written to the new file, update a byte counter that you can read when
checking file size.

The article in this link describes how to copy by transferring a byte from
one file to another, although you may want to read and write larger chunks
(multiples of 1024) using Stream.Read/Write.
