Like I said, unlikely anyone could have offered much. Even someone who IS familiar with Python and Windows registry might not have been able to do much without seeing the system in front of them.

Although the clue was right there in what I posted. "Wow6432node". Under that was exactly the abbreviated list that the function was returning to me. That's when it dawned on me...Windows 2008 R2 is a 64 bit operating system, and I didn't remember downloading the 64 bit Python package. Which means I must have installed the 32 bit version, so it could only read the 32 bit portions of the registry.

Which I'm sure clears everything right up for you.
