I had the same problem, till I found out that I damaged my machine.config. I added some oracle configuration, but misplaced a closing tag. After fixing this GitExtensions worked again.

x32: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Config\machine.config x64: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Config\machine.config

If this doesn't help, find all gitextensions folder in C:\Users\ and delete them (better backup them before).
