Some installers, such as Toad's, perform a "code optimization" during the installation of the program, presumably to enhance the operation of the application.
However, considering installers usually contain pre-compiled executables, what is the installer actually doing during this optimization process?
Is the program built on top of .NET (e.g. C#)? Those are compiled to CLR, optimization via ngen would compile them to native machine code. – user1686 – 2016-07-28T17:42:43.677
