The only reason your code could fail would be if e.CommandArgument doesn't have a valid file name. I think the Command Argument isn't being passed for some reason, please look into your markup.
You have to explicitly specify CommandArgument for a LinkButton like this:
CommandArgument='<%# Eval("File") %>'

You don't supply a commandArgument for your RowCommand event. Change
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CommandName="Download" Text='<%# Eval("File") %>'></asp:LinkButton>
to
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CommandName="Download" CommandArgument='<%# Eval("File") %>' Text='<%# Eval("File") %>'></asp:LinkButton>
