I think you have downloaded the .NET Reflector & this FileGenerator plugin http://filegenreflector.codeplex.com/ , If you do,

1. Open up the Reflector.exe,

2. Go to View and click Add-Ins,

3. In the Add-Ins window click Add...,

4. Then find the dll you have downloaded

5. FileGenerator.dll (witch came wth the FileGenerator plugin),
