Extension stops working with "An unexpected error occurred" message
See original GitHub issueDescription
FirefoxPWA extension doesn’t work and shows error message “An unexpected error occurred” on Setup screen, toolbar popup and debug console.
Steps to Reproduce
With existing installation when I got the message to install runtime version 1.3.0 the Connector Installation page showed “Error: An unexpected error occurred” message.
The toolbar popup shows same message.
Upon removing and installing extension again same thing happens.
Additional Information
The error happens with a new Firefox profile as well. I am using Nightly 97.0a1. Adding “DEBUG” file to %APPDATA%\FirefoxPWA doesn’t produce detailed logs. about:support data is at https://gist.github.com/xolve/6e3b6cd6250809a1cc91e0325ee85fe0

This should be fixed in v1.3.1. Sorry for the inconvenience!
The problem seems to be that the MSI installer created a new registry key with new name while the program still expects the old one. I will soon release a fix.
