This code will open a first OpenFileDialog for the user to select the file he wants to copy.
Then open a SaveFileDialog for the user to select the place and name where the file will be copied.
Hope it helps.
Let me know if you need explanations or modifications.

             String filePath = "";
            OpenFileDialog getFile = new OpenFileDialog();
            SaveFileDialog saveFile = new SaveFileDialog();
            
            DialogResult dg = getFile.ShowDialog();
            if (dg == DialogResult.OK)
            {
                filePath = getFile.FileName;
                saveFile.FileName = filePath;
            }
            if (filePath != "")
            {
                dg = saveFile.ShowDialog();

                if (dg == DialogResult.OK)
                {
                    if (System.IO.File.Exists(filePath))
                    {
                        System.IO.File.Copy(filePath, saveFile.FileName);
                    }
                }
            }
