var viewComputerConfiguration = true;
using (var gpo = new ComputerGroupPolicyObject(new GroupPolicyObjectSettings(loadRegistryInfo: true, readOnly: true)))
using (var registryKey = gpo.GetRootRegistryKey(viewComputerConfiguration ? GroupPolicySection.Machine : GroupPolicySection.User))
{
    void Walk(RegistryKey key)
    {
        foreach (var subKeyName in key.GetSubKeyNames())
        {
            using (var subKey = key.OpenSubKey(subKeyName))
            {
                Walk(subKey);
            }
        }
        foreach (var valueName in key.GetValueNames())
        {
            var kind = key.GetValueKind(valueName);
            var data = key.GetValue(valueName, "", RegistryValueOptions.DoNotExpandEnvironmentNames);
            Console.WriteLine($"{key.Name.TrimStart('\\')}\\{valueName} = {data}");
        }
    }
