  value = reg_key.get_value("Driver")

# If parameter is read only - optional access type has to be explicitly set:
with OpenKey(winreg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "Read Only Path", access=winreg.KEY_READ) as reg_key:
  value = reg_key.get_value("Driver")

# Read all parameters under given path into dictionary
with OpenKey(winreg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, r"SOFTWARE\\") as reg_key:
