How to use the tray app with the portable version? #136

Also how to use the installer version with custom data folder like the portable is used with -d

I run Jellyfin on multiple PCs so it must be portable, at least its data. But it's safer to keep the server portable as well, because if you are using the installer and forget to update Jellyfin installer on any of the PCs, then you might cause issues with the data folder if version mismatches, plus it's easier than keep updating all machines to latest version of Jellyfin all the time.

Currently it's annoying if I have multiple CMD windows opened, because Jellyfin window gets lost with them. If there is a simple solution would be appreciated.

Thanks.
