From the registry file, it is apparent that this is a 64-bit Windows installation. The KACE agent runs in the 32-bit environment. That means that anything you have set to go to HLKM\SOFTWARE will get redirected automatically (by Windows itself) to the HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432NODE key. In order to work around this, in your script, replace all instances of HKLM with HKLM64. This tells the KACE agent to bypass redirection and go to the real 64-bit registry location. The nice thing is, if you run the same script on a 32-bit Windows, KACE just ignores the 64 and still puts it in the correct place.
