Why have you got curved brackets around the registry path?
$2 will contain the value stored in key "" (or (default) in regedit).

I think you are asking how to read the values in a registry key? Use EnumRegValue in a loop to get the value names, and ReadRegStr or ReadRegDWORD to get the data for the values.
