            Graphics Grfx = Graphics.FromImage(bitmap);
            Grfx.InterpolationMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic;
            Grfx.SmoothingMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.SmoothingMode.HighQuality;
            Grfx.PixelOffsetMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.PixelOffsetMode.HighQuality;
            Grfx.CompositingQuality = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.CompositingQuality.HighQuality;
            Grfx.DrawImage(bitmap, 0, 0, wb.Width, wb.Height);

            using (Bitmap img = bitmap.Clone() as Bitmap)
            {
                Bitmap newimage = img.Clone(new System.Drawing.Rectangle(0, 0, bitmap.Width, bitmap.Height), img.PixelFormat);
                newimage.Save(imgpaths, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);  //Error:A generic error occurred in GDI+.

When reading an image from a file, the file will be kept open as long as that image object exists.

You have to dispose the original image object before you can save an image with the same file name.
