You might try it another way, using ruby code.
Facter.add(:myfact) do
confine :kernel => :windows
setcode do
require 'win32/registry'
value = nil
hive = Win32::Registry::HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
hive.open('SOFTWARE\Somewhere\SomeValue',
Win32::Registry::KEY_READ | 0x100) do |reg|
value = reg['SomeValue']
end
value
end
