How do I capture https requests with Postman native app using Windows 10?

Question

I am using the Postman native app on Windows 10 and am struggling with trying to capture https requests. Postman's Documentation for this is for Mac and not Windows.

In particular, I am working on a web application that creates a session cookie upon login that needs to be included in most requests in order to be authorized. When I was using the Chrome App, Postman Interceptor achieved this (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/32436131/3816779).

Here's what I've tried so far:

1. Turn on the Proxy in Postman with port 5555.
   
2. Configured windows to send http and https requests through Postman's proxy server (127.0.0.1:5555).
   

This allows http requests to be captured in Postman

But when trying to connect to https sites, I get an error

Here are my Postman settings if that helps.

Update I ended up switching back to the Chrome App, which uses the "Interceptor" instead of a "Proxy Server" to capture traffic.

Unfortunately, capture https requests with postman native app is impossible in some case according to the official doc: Capturing HTTP requests

Note: for the Postman native apps, request captures over HTTPS will not work if the website has HSTS enabled. Most websites have this check in place.
