The Native Image Generator (Ngen.exe) is a tool that creates a native image from an assembly and stores that image to native image cache on the computer. Whenever, an assembly is run, this native image is automatically used to compile the original assembly. In this way, this tool improves the performance of the managed application by loading and executing an assembly faster.
Note that native images are files that consist of compiled processor-specific machine code. The Ngen.exe tool installs these files on to the local computer.
