You need to know the names of the individual keys - getting a list isn't
supported. If you add a "View" or "FindFlags" to the end of that path you
do get a value.
The values (in that particular key) are stored as binary, so you need to use
the binaryEncode and decode functions to get and set these values (or they
come back somewhat garbled as you noticed).
