You will have to add up the size of all files manually, e.g.

public static long GetDirectorySize(string path)
{
long size = 0L;
string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(path);
if(files != null)
{
for(int i = 0; i < files.Length; i++)
{
FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo(files);
size += fileInfo.Length;
}
}
string[] subDirs = Directory.GetDirectories(path);
if(subDirs != null)
{
for(int i = 0; i < subDirs.Length; i++)
{
size += GetDirectorySize(subDirs);
}
}
return size;
}

}
}
return size;

}

=================================

Same Logic... Optimized.....

private long GetDirectorySize(DirectoryInfo di)
{
long size = 0L;

foreach (FileInfo fi in di.GetFiles())
{
size += fi.Length;
}

foreach (DirectoryInfo subdir in di.GetDirectories())
{
GetDirectorySize(subdir);
}

return size;
}
