Fixes #657
Change
The issue was due to a REG_SZ value containing a wide string with a narrow null terminator. Move to using RegGetValue, as it ensures that a proper null character will always be at the end of a registry string value.
Validation
The provided registry hive was readable by the underlying list code, and a new test is added to ensure that this specific case works.
