Writable registry permission

 RegistrySecurity rs = new RegistrySecurity();

 RegistryKey rk =
 RegistryKey.OpenBaseKey(RegistryHive.LocalMachine, RegistryView.Registry32).
 OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\\MyApplication", true);

 rs.AddAccessRule(new RegistryAccessRule("Everyone",
 RegistryRights.WriteKey | RegistryRights.ReadKey | RegistryRights.Delete,
                        InheritanceFlags.None,
                        PropagationFlags.None,
                        AccessControlType.Allow));

//Complete solution: 

        RegistrySecurity rs = new RegistrySecurity();
        RegistryKey rk = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\ASUS", true);
        rs.AddAccessRule(new RegistryAccessRule("Everyone", RegistryRights.WriteKey |  RegistryRights.ReadKey, InheritanceFlags.None, PropagationFlags.None, AccessControlType.Deny)); 
        if(rk != null)
        {
          rk.SetAccessControl(rs);
        }
