You can download dev build like this for now: https://getsharex.com/docs/dev-builds~~

You can download pre release build:

Or download FFmpeg manually from: https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/
and extract ffmpeg.exe file to Documents\ShareX\Tools folder.

Looks like the 7z version is no longer hosted. Need a fast patch pls.

Downloading the file and putting it myself into the tools folder fixed it for now. I also had to change my username in my config files because i recently reinstalled windows. The issue is still there tho.

This has been fixed, but the update has not been published

Thanks!
It should download a ZIP file instead of .7z now.

I had comodo Firewall installed. Unblockin ffmpeg seems solved the problem.
