I am getting the following error when opening rebox.net:

Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. Configuration system failed to initialize.

I have placed at the end of my post, further details of this error.
I am on Windows 10 (have been for some time, have a PC with good specs) and this started happening after a recent Windows update.
I have chosen both Continue and Quit, and can't proceed. Have also restarted the PC several times, and have uninstalled and downloaded and reinstalled rebox.net with no improvement.

Would really appreciate help in fixing this, as I'm not happy with other mkv to mp4 alternatives like VLC.


Thanks,
Richard

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
