HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1177238915-706699826-1957994488-1003\ is acutlly one of the user's registry tree. Reading from HKCU (HKEY_CURRENT_USER) works too, that's what NSISdl does.

Like I said, just read it from HKCU, it is the same only you don't need to find the user id (S-1-5-21-1177238915-706699826-1957994488-1003 in your case).
