I went to install ShareX today, downloaded both 16.0.1 and the dev build.

I started the install for 16.0.1, and everything seemed to proceed normally... until the end, when it asks if I want to open ShareX. When I clicked OK, I recieved a dialog error:

error

I then installed the dev build on top of 16.0.1, and at the end the same dialog appeared.

I'm not sure how you can reproduce this other than just installing the program.

I'm guessing the installer wasn't run elevated? I don't know if you have some kind of auto-elevation integrated in the installer.
