I downloaded the current and two previous versions and tried them all but I keep getting this error. It worked wonderfully couple of days ago, but today it seems to act up and give me this error. Can someone help me? PS: I am on Windows 11.

This seems like error not really related to ShareX so I took liberty and edited GPT4 answer to copy here in case it might help

Given that the issue is with a GDI+ method used by the System.Drawing namespace to load an image from a stream, it might be related to a corrupted image resource within the application or the .NET Framework installation on your system. Here's what you could try:

  1. Run the application with administrative privileges to ensure it has all necessary permissions.
  2. If it's an issue with .NET Framework, you could try repairing or reinstalling the .NET Framework.
  3. If you suspect that the application configuration or temporary files may be corrupted, try clearing them. This might involve deleting user settings or application cache, which is typically found in the AppData directory on Windows.
