What is Native Image Generator (Ngen.exe)?- Ngen.exe is a tool that improves the performance of managed applications.
- It creates native images containing processor specific machine code.
- It installs these images in the native image cache on the target computer.
- It generates a native binary image for the current operating systems.
- Ngen.exe is stored in a native image cache on the local computer.
- Native Image Generator allows the assembly to load and execute faster, because it restores code and data structures from the native image cache rather than generating them directly.
- It compiles assemblies with full trust and code access security (CAS) policy is no longer evaluated.
- It maintains a count on dependencies.
