net assembly cache

Try running C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\ngen.exe update
that is 32-bit, there is also 64-bit:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\ngen.exe update

Same applies for C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework*\v2.0.50727, if the first one doesn't trigger v2 cache rebuild.
 
Is it really necessary to run these command lines to rebuild the cache? IIRC, I have seen Comodo Firewall/HIPS alert me when mscore (or something like that) wants to run. When I looked this up on the web, it said that it was .netframework building some prebuilt assembly files. (?)
 
It is true that the scheduled task will also do it for you, should have mentioned that as well :)
Thanks.
 
"ngen.exe update" works :)

didnt see any tasks related to .net, ngen, mscore or anything similar/related. this could be due to fact that im using syspreped image where most likely task is ran and disabled or deleted itself.

anyway, "ngen.exe update" is all that matters, cheers !!!

btw for those wondering why is net assembly cache needed anyway - without it, anything dealing with mmc.exe (event viewer, task scheduler etc) will load 100 times slower(, among other things maybe :))
