Closing PowerToys and restarting it fixed this.
So not important, but I just wanted to file this bug as it was suggested.

This is odd as that name space is WinForms?!?

Same problem,

windows: 10 20H2
version: 0.31.2

[enricogior]

@ramonsmits
are you also running PowerToys on German locale?

[ramonsmits]

@enricogior No I'm not, I'm running Windows in en-US with Dutch formatting.

It is now working again without issues.

[crutkas]

@enricogior, #9734 has same WindowTop error in the logs

[crutkas]

Actually, looking at this log and from #9734 i think we're trying to load an image that isn't there and that is what is actually failing.

This log shows files from a file server and the other one was from onedrive, who's lnk may not be downloaded.
