Which is the best way to measure the download speed in real time (or as close as possible) in a windows store application. I have been searching for a solution and have yet to come across one or something similar.

Is there a windows store class that will be able to achieve this.

Depending on your use case, if you are downloading manually, you can calculate the download speed manually.

The Performance Counters are not supported since it requires registry access to work, not permitted in a Windows Store app.

  • Unfortunately, the performance counters are not supported on the windows store apps for security. – Dmitry Sadakov Feb 25 '14 at 23:09
