Plugin is unavailable after installation/activation

Hi @anumbilal705

ShareThis 1.5.6

I have the identical issue on two WordPress sites, each using a different theme but hosted on the same VPS (virtual private server).

One site uses the Classic Editor and one the new blocks and widgets, both throw the same critical errors on trying to enter general settings. If I rollback to ShareThis 1.5.5 then I can get into general settings without this error appearing and this has been the temporary workaround.

Will reproduce these errors underneath the configuration information.

WordPress version 5.9.2

P.S. Have tried uninstalled / reinstalling ShareThis 1.5.6 from scratch and only rolling back to 1.5.5 solves the issue
