ReadRegStr problem
Hi,
I'm having a little problem and I can't see the solution (which should be, I guess, pretty straightforward):

!define SHELLFOLDERS "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders"

[...]

Function un.RemoveSettings
  
  ReadRegStr $1 HKCU ${SHELLFOLDERS} "Local AppData"
  StrCmp $1 "" noLocalAppData
  RMDir /r "$1\CompanyName\ProductName"
  
noLocalAppData:
 
FunctionEnd

Returns this error:
ReadRegStr expects 4 parameters, got 5

ReadRegStr $1 HKCU "${SHELLFOLDERS}" "Local AppData"

SHELLFOLDERS has spaces in it, thus is passing as two parameters instead of one.
