title: How to I read any file in binary using C#?
body: <p>The application I'm attempting to create would read the binary code of any file and create a file with the exact same binary code, creating a copy.</p>
  
  <p>While writing a program that reads a file and writes it somewhere else, I was running into encoding issues, so I hypothesize that reading as straight binary will overcome this.</p>
  
  <p>The file being read into the application is important, as after I get this to work I will add additional functionality to search within or manipulate the file's data as it is read.</p>
  
  <p>Update:
  I'd like to thank everyone that took the time to answer, I now have a working solution. Wolfwyrd's answer was exactly what I needed.</p>
