[Error] listen EACCES: permission denied about sharex-upload-server HOT 2 CLOSED

Ah, Node errors: cryptic as can be. permission denied means it doesn't have permissions, and listen seems to suggest that it doesn't have permission to run the server on a certain port.

Typically, ports 80 and 443 (anything under 1024) are ports that require administrator permission to run, at least on Linux. On Linux, you'll need to run with sudo, and on Windows you'll need an elevated prompt. Otherwise, you can also change the ports to something higher, which won't need those permissions.

If you do that last thing, you'll just need to add :port to the end of the domain when using ShareX. Instead of example.com/upload, you'll use example.com:port/upload.
