Résolution
It's not possible to modify there registry keys by RUM dual-ACL process because SYSTEM\Waas\... registry keys are protected from modification by administrators and backup admins as these keys belong to Windows Update health checks.
Antivirus is also blocking access to its own registry keys because of tamper-protection mechanisms.
The issue is not affecting resource processing and can be safely ignored.
