Screenshot works once on Internet Explorer

Description

I have installed the latest build 1.2.8.12 of Greenshot. When I capture internet explorer via the key shortcut or the Greenshot menu, Greenshot captures IE without any problems. If I open a second tab on IE and try to take a screenshot, "Please wait while the page in Internet Explorer is captured." flashes on the screen. This only happens on extra tabs that I open and not on the original tab. Also, if Greenshot goes unused for 10-15 minutes, when I attempt to take a screenshot, it takes around 30 seconds for the application to respond. Any suggestions?

Environment

Windows 10 64bit.

Yes, I am actually aware of it and already know how to fix this.
Unfortunately the fix is only possible with updating the .NET Framework version Greenshot uses, and that's a bit more work than just a quick fix.
I have been working on it for months already, and the fix will be in Greenshot 1.3 (or 2.0 depending on what we decide to release).

Just to be clear when the message flashes on the screen and disappears, nothing happens. No image is captured. Also, if I navigate to another webpage on the original tab the same thing will happen. The message flashes and no image is capture. I have to restart Greenshot to be able to capture another webpage. Thanks!
