So, of course, the file is not complete, but the actual size (not size on disk) is exactly the same.
Here is the complete code of the server and client. In this example, I am copying the file from C:\temp\IMG_8526.jpg to E:\temp\newjpg.jpg.

Both are fully running examples. Any advice is appreciated on WHY the first part of the file isn't being copied? (looks like 4 characters when I bring it into Notepad++).
If I do copy the first four characters from the IMG_8526.jpg file into the newjpg.jpg file using Notepad++, then the image works.
in ReceiveDoWorkThenReturnDataToClient, the value for iResult the first time through is 4, so maybe that has to do with it?
This code was adapted from @RemyLebeau's reply at Winsock upload file to remote server
On the server side, ReceiveDoWorkThenReturnDataToClient() is running a loop where each iteration is first reading an arbitrary buffer of bytes from the socket and discarding that buffer before then trying to receive a file.
When the client connects, it immediately sends the file's size followed by the file's data. But the server will throw away the first handful of bytes of that transmission, thus corrupting the file size and the beginning of the file.
You need to get rid of that initial arbitrary read on each loop iteration. In fact, you should just get rid of the loop altogether, since the client is sending only 1 file and then disconnecting.
It also looks like you are running a 2nd loop that tries to acknowledge each buffer received from the client. That is completely unnecessary in TCP, since it already has its own acknowledgement system built-in at the transmission layer. Not to mention, you are not even sending your acknowledgement correctly anyway (ie, "1" + nSentBytes doesn't do what you think it does). You don't need to acknowledge each buffer, but you could certainly send back a final reply at the end to let the client know whether or not the file was received and saved correctly.
Try something more like this instead:
BOOL ReceiveDoWorkThenReturnDataToClient(CONST SOCKET sd)
{
BOOL ReceiveSuccessful = FALSE;
WCHAR sTempFileOut[MAX_PATH] = L"E:\\temp\\newjpg.jpg";
DeleteFile(sTempFileOut);
FILE* fp = NULL;
errno_t err = _wfopen_s(&fp, sTempFileOut, L"wb");
if (fp == NULL)
{
send(sd, (char*)&ReceiveSuccessful, 1, 0);
return 1;
}
ULONG FileSize;
int iResult = readBytes(sd, &FileSize, sizeof(FileSize));
if (iResult <= 0)
{
fclose(fp);
send(sd, (char*)&ReceiveSuccessful, 1, 0);
return 1;
}
FileSize = ntohl(FileSize);
CHAR mfcc[1024];
while (FileSize > 0)
{
int Received = readBytes(sd, mfcc, min(sizeof(mfcc), FileSize));
if (Received <= 0)
{
fclose(fp);
send(sd, (char*)&ReceiveSuccessful, 1, 0);
return 1;
}
if (fwrite(mfcc, 1, Received, fp) != Received)
{
fclose(fp);
send(sd, (char*)&ReceiveSuccessful, 1, 0);
return 1;
}
FileSize -= Received;
}
fflush(fp);
fclose(fp);
ReceiveSuccessful = TRUE;
send(sd, (char*)&ReceiveSuccessful, 1, 0);
return TRUE;
}
