Subtract part of a registry value? (RegRead)

[supraspecies]

Good day. I've searched the forum thoroughly, and haven't found the answer to my problem. Straight to business, not to waste more of your time:

I need to read program path from the registry. Point is - there isn't a direct path. There is a reference to EXE. For example:

RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\program.exe", "Path")

would read the value:

C:\Program Files\Program\Program.exe.

while I need only the path, like this:

C:\Program Files\Program\

Is there any way I can subtract the \program.exe from the value and have just the path? Relatively simple way, if there is any, would be very much appreciated, since I'm a newbie. Thank you in advance.

$s = 'C:\Program Files\Program\Program.exe.'

$pos = StringInStr($s,'\',0,-1)

$stripped = StringTrimRight($s,StringLen($s) - $pos)

ConsoleWrite($stripped & @LF)
