##Background

By default, QZ Tray will use the windows registry for locating the Firefox installation path.
For FirefoxPortable users this poses a problem as HTTPS support will not work due to the inability for QZ Tray to locate the Firefox installation location.
For HTTPS to function properly with PortableFirefox, a user must re-running the windows-keygen.js script and supply a 4th parameter.

##Steps

Start CMD as Administrator
Run the following command, where E:\FirefoxPortable is the full path to the FirefoxPortable installation.

cscript //E:jscript "%PROGRAMFILES%\QZ Tray\auth\windows-keygen.js" "" "" "" "E:\FirefoxPortable"

If the installation succeeds, HTTPS support should be installed properly for FirefoxPortable. Test by visiting https://demo.qz.io
